Well, this just warms the cockles of my cold, shriveled heart. Amid all of the stories of declining bar passage rates it can be easy to lose sight of the sheer joy passing the bar exam brings.
Take for example the video below making the rounds on social media. The recent law school graduate featured waited for his parents to get home before checking to see if he’d passed the bar exam, then filmed the fam getting the results in real time. (Side note — can we all just marvel at this kid’s Herculean self-control? There is exactly no chance I would have or even could have waited an extra minute to find out my results, let alone to the end of the workday.)
Anyway, you should enjoy the video below — even with the sound off the unadulterated joy of this family is crystal clear.
