Welcome back to Ahead of the Curve. I’m Karen Sloan, legal education editor at Law.com, and I’ll be your host for this weekly look at innovation and notable developments in legal education.
This week, I’m weighing in on a letter the Society of American Law Teachers sent to the ABA last week, asking it to suspend the 75% bar pass standard amid the COVID-19 pandemic. I’m breaking down some pros and cons to that approach. Plus, I’ve got some updates on the bar exam, from California’s dismal February results to Florida’s decision to push forward with the July test, and Indiana paring the exam down to one day. Read on and stay safe!
