.@illinoiscourts has decided that the Feb. 2021 Bar Exam will be held remotely.
@il_bar has made no effort to survey Oct. 2020 examinees about their experience, nor have they released any information about how they fared with the new remote format.

👇👇👇 This part right here. @ExamSoft has demonstrated that it cannot be trusted to operate in good faith and address reasonable concerns our advocates have brought to bar exam authorities in the past year.

Imagine having had nearly a year to address tech concerns that were raised during past bar administrations and willfully choosing against actually doing so. That’s corporate ethics for you, amirite @ExamSoft?

Reminder that the head of @NCBEX never sat for a #BarExam because she was admitted to practice through Diploma Privilege. Something she actively tries to deny other future lawyers. Our profession can be hypocritical and downright shameful at times. #AbolishTheBar 📚 ⚖️ – at San Francisco, CA

If you faced issues with the online bar exam, please DM us. This is unacceptable @ExamSoft. You had an entire year to get the logistics in order.

It’s remarkable how many new lawyers’ response to passing the bar exam is to advocate for abolishing the bar exam.
This generation is going to transform the profession for the better – at Delaware, USA
I have a couple of things to say:
1. Donate to the @BlackBarAppFund to help more Black bar applicants have a shot at passing
2. ABOLISH THE DAMN BAR EXAM!! It really doesn’t test competency and creates a huge barrier for everyone especially Black people and people of color!
