Kim Kardashian finally passed the baby bar exam on her fourth attempt

In her recent interview with Vogue Italia, Kim Kardashian opened up about how difficult it was to pass the baby bar exam after failing thrice in the past. She also said that it was her daughter North West who stood by her throughout the process.

When the interviewer told Kim that one of their favorite moments to revisit in the show was when Kim passed her baby bar exam, Kardashian expressed a similar sentiment. She told the interviewer that it was one of her favorite episodes as well.

Kim Kardashian said that her daughter North West with her estranged husband Kanye West has been a pillar throughout her time preparing for the exam. She shared how her daughter has seen her struggle throughout and couldn't really fully grasp why her famous mother was studying all the time.

"My daughter was there with me. For a long time it was difficult for her to understand why I was studying all the time," the owner of Skims said.

The baby bar exam is officially known as California's first-year law students exam. It is a daylong test for aspiring lawyers in the state who are not taking the traditional path of attending an accredited law school.

Kim Kardashian's journey to becoming a lawyer has been an unconventional one, as she is studying through the Law Office study program. The program involves training under the supervision of an experienced lawyer or judge. Passing the baby bar exam is a significant milestone that allows her to continue her legal studies and eventually take the full bar exam.

Kim previously failed the baby bar exam thrice making her fourth attempt incredibly important. It was so as it would've been the reality TV star's final attempt and if she were to fail it, she wouldn't have been able to pursue her dream of becoming a lawyer.

As mentioned earlier, Kim Kardashian finally passed her baby bar exam on Monday, December 13, 2023. She took to Twitter to tell her 75 million followers about the same and thanked everyone who had helped her pass the exam.

Kim Kardashian also told the publication how seeing her mother clear the exam helped North West see how important the achievement was for Kim.

"But when she saw me cry from joy, I knew she understood how important that achievement was to me personally," Kardashian noted.

This poignant moment not only deepened their connection but also allowed North to perceive her mother as a relatable figure. It showed her that her mother was someone who faces challenges head-on and overcomes them with strength and determination.

Apart from North West, Kim also shares three other children, seven-year-old Saint, five-year-old Chicago, and four-year-old Psalm with Kanye West.
