All’s fair in the process of becoming a lawyer.
That’s why Kim Kardashian had to complete the bar exam nearly six months after graduating from her law school program. And now, the SKIMS founder has shared the long-awaited results of her test.
Indeed, Kardashian revealed on Nov. 8 that she sadly did not pass the all-important exam, but she wasn’t calling it quits, either.
“Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar,” she wrote in a post on her Instagram Stories. “No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination.”
“Falling short isn’t failure — it’s fuel,” she continued. “I was so close to passing the exam and that only motivates me even more.”
The “All’s Fair” actress even made a quip about her role as a divorce attorney in the TV drama, joking, “I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well-dressed one on TV.”
Kardashian first revealed she was awaiting her exam results back in October, when she shared that she was hoping to “be qualified” to practice law “in two weeks.”
The 45-year-old previously offered insight into the type of lawyer she would want to be.
“Maybe in 10 years, I think I’ll give up being Kim K, and be a trial lawyer,” she said on the Oct. 24 episode of “The Graham Norton Show.” “That’s what I really want.”
Kardashian continued, “I always want to be growing, curious and evolving, and I want to see wherever that takes me.”

There’s no doubt that the “Kardashians” star has done a lot of growing since beginning her process of becoming a licensed lawyer. In addition to taking the bar exam, Kim enrolled in a four-year apprenticeship with a San Francisco law firm in 2018 and took the “baby bar” exam — which signifies the completion of the first year of study for students taking unaccredited law classes — three times before passing it in 2021.
Plus, Kardashian also passed the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) in March, according to multiple outlets.
And along the way, Kardashian admitted that she’s used some studying hacks that haven’t always worked out in her favor.
One method she might not turn to as regularly once she’s a practicing lawyer? ChatGPT.
“They’re always wrong,” Kardashian explained during a Nov. 3 appearance on Vanity Fair’s Lie Detector Test series. “It has made me fail tests all the time. And then I’ll get mad and I’ll yell at it, ‘You made me fail! Why did you do this?’ And it will talk back to me.”
In a trailer for Kanye West’s latest documentary, “In Whose Name,” the reality star can be heard crying as she says to her ex, “Your personality was not like this a few years ago.”
