Kim Kardashian is opening up about her latest bump on the road to becoming an attorney. Earlier today she revealed that she did not pass the California Bar Exam in July 2025 — but also insisted that she’s not giving up on her dream.
💬 Her Full Statement
In an Instagram Stories post, Kim wrote:
“Well… I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well‑dressed one on TV. Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination.
Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged me along the way so far. Failing short isn’t failure — it’s fuel. I was so close to passing the exam and that only motivated me even more.”

Her message was both frank and firm: she acknowledged the setback, but treated it as part of the process rather than the end of the road.
🔍 The Background: Her Legal Journey
Kim’s path to law has been far from traditional. Instead of attending a formal law school, she opted for California’s Law Office Study Program — an alternate route that allows apprenticeship under a practicing attorney, reports PEOPLE.
In December 2021, she passed California’s First‑Year Law Students’ Examination (commonly called the “baby bar”) on her fourth attempt — a major milestone in her non‑traditional path.
This July she sat for California’s full Bar Exam. The results landed this week: she did not pass. Yet she stressed that she’s “still all in” and viewing this as fuel for her next push.
🌟 What This Means
Kim’s transparency here does more than update her status — it’s a message to anyone chasing a big goal. She’s showing that even high‑profile journeys come with setbacks. She’s also underscoring that persistence — over time, again and again — can matter more than perfection.
For her, this is about more than a title. Kim has stated that her legal ambitions are tied to her longtime passion for criminal justice reform, inspired in part by her late father, attorney Robert Kardashian Sr.
