The reality star has been vocal about her passion for criminal justice reform over the years and has now updated fans on her progress with becoming a lawyer
Kim Kardashian is putting her nose to the grindstone! On June 4, The Kardashians star gave fans an update on her progress with law school as she studies to take the bar exam. In a post shared to her Instagram Stories, Kardashian snapped a photo of her test prep material and dished on her least favorite subject in law.
“I can’t deal with all these f—ing hearsay exceptions!” she wrote. “My least favorite subject in law school.” The picture featured a shot of an energy drink she was using to fuel her studies in the background and some handwritten notes. Over the years, the SKIMS founder has given frequent updates about her journey into becoming a lawyer. In May 2023, Kardashian revealed she got straight As on her latest law school midterms during an appearance on Today.
“I’m still studying. I’m actually in constitutional law 1 and 2 right now. It’s my toughest; not the biggest fan of it, I’ve been sharing my struggle,” she told host Savannah Guthrie at the time. “But with that said, I took a midterm yesterday. I got 100 percent and then I got a 95 percent on my other midterm. So I feel — that gives me that boost of confidence again just to push through.”
With her good grades and fingers crossed, Kardashian said she hoped to take the bar exam “in the next year or so” and be “done” with her studies.
Since 2019, Kardashian has been vocal about her passion for law and her private schooling journey. The reality star consistently advocates for wrongfully convicted inmates or those with unfair sentences. Her first legal success came when Kardashian successfully campaigned for the clemency of grandmother Alice Marie Johnson, who was sentenced to life in prison for a nonviolent offense.
In April 2023, she revealed that she would be willing to give up her life on camera to pursue the profession. “I would be just as happy being an attorney full time,” she said at the TIME100 Summit, adding that she hopes becoming a lawyer will be “her life’s most meaningful work.” “I always joke with my mom — who’s my manager — I say Kim K. is retiring, and I’m just going to be an attorney,” she added.
