WHAT WE’RE WATCHING

OPTIONS - While many states have yet to decide whether to cancel the July bar exam, the National Conference of Bar Examiners has announced two dates in the fall when law grads can take the test. Karen Sloan reports that the conference will offer an exam Sept. 9 and 10, and a second exam Sept. 30 and Oct. 1. New York became the first state to officially postpone the July bar, and Massachusetts, Connecticut and Hawaii have followed suit. California has not made a decision. The various exam dates mean the conference will need to develop different tests for each testing session.
