Kim Kardashian Shares The Same Struggles As Average Law Students

It's true: they all know a 'lil' bit' about the law.

For several years now, Above the Law has been tracking Kim Kardashian’s journey to becoming a lawyer through an apprenticeship. Since 2019, the reality TV star turned beauty and clothing entrepreneur has offered us glimpses into her life as a law student through her social media feeds, and with each study session, current law students and practicing lawyers couldn’t help but grow a little closer to her.

But perhaps the thing that humanized Kardashian the most to members of the legal profession was her repeated failures on the baby bar exam. Kardashian failed the test three times before she finally succeeded, and now, as the new academic year is soon set to begin, she’s back. This time, she’s sharing a vibe that’s known a bit too well by law students. Check out the latest from her Instagram:

That’s a lyric made famous by none other than Jay-Z, but law students across the country will soon be echoing these words as their families and friends descend upon them with endless legal questions. Just remember, everyone: what you’re dispensing is legal information, not legal advice.

Best of luck this year, law students, and best of luck to Kim Kardashian as she inches closer to sitting for the actual bar exam.
