By Ashley Gale
Kim Kardashian gave her 360 million social media followers a glimpse into her professional life as she continues her law school journey.
On November 21st, the Skims mogul shared a selfie while sitting at her desk in front of a binder filled with notes. While seemingly taking a break from her studies, Kim set her phone up and posed for a selfie.
In the snap, which has curated over 700,000 likes since being published, the mom of four had her black hair pulled back into a low messy bun with a few strands let loose. She also got cozy in a plunging brown tank top and added a pair of matching glasses. Kim rested her hand on her lips while holding a pen and showing off her famous pout.
Kim captioned her post, "Law school."
In the comment section, Kim's younger sister Khloe shared some words of encouragement, "I love a MILFY lawyer," along with a heart-eyed emojis.
Other fans commented, "Law school looks good on you queen!" With another exclaiming, "She's in her study season... we see you!"
Kim passes the Baby Bar Exam
Since starting her law school journey in 2018, Kim has been working extra hard to achieve her dream of becoming a lawyer. That year, she joined a four-year apprenticeship with a law firm in San Francisco, California. The billionaire businesswoman joined the firm to learn more about and study the ins and outs of criminal justice reform work.
After failing the California Baby Bar Exam three times, she unveiled in a lengthy Instagram post that she finally passed.
The exam is not an easy task. The Baby Bar is given to students finishing up their first year of law school and consists of 100 multiple-choice questions.
On December 13, 2021, Kim excitedly shared the update with a few photos of the star in a beautiful blue gown.
"I passed the baby bar exam!" she exclaimed.
"Looking in the mirror, I am really proud of the woman looking back today in the reflection. For anyone who doesn’t know my law school journey, know this wasn’t easy or handed to me. I failed this exam 3 times in 2 years, but I got back up each time and studied harder and tried again until I did it!!! (I did have COVID on the 3rd try w a 104 fever but I’m not making excuses.)"
She continued, "In California, the way I’m studying law you need to take 2 bar exams, this was just the first one but with the harder pass rate. I was told by top lawyers that this was a close to impossible journey and harder than the traditional law school route but it was my only option and it feels so so sooooo good to be here and on my way to achieving my goals."
Kim continued her caption by giving the people that helped her through studying, "10 hour days, daily 4 hour zooms, our in person practice tests week after week. We did it!"
"I know my dad would be so proud and he would actually be so shocked to know that this is my path now but he would have been my best study partner. I am told he was notorious for making fun of people who didn’t pass on their first attempt like he did, but he would have been my biggest cheerleader!"
She concluded her post with some advice, "Bottom line is don’t ever give up even when you are holding on by a thread, you can do it!!!!! Set your mind to it and get it done because it feels soooooo good once you get to the other side."
