In the face of astronomical law school tuitions, a mere $100 may help aspiring lawyers improve their chances of passing the Pennsylvania bar exam. According to Mark Dows, executive director of Pennsylvania's Board of Law Examiners, students who complete the essay portion of the exam with laptops pass at a higher rate than those who write it out by hand. The laptop option is available at the Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg exam locations.

More and more aspiring lawyers who sit for the bar in Pennsylvania are using their laptops to take the test — and those who do so tend to pass at a higher rate than those who don’t, according to the head of the state’s Board of Law Examiners.
For $100, anyone taking the bar exam in Pennsylvania can type up the essay portion instead of writing it out longhand. (The multiple-choice section is still done by pencil.)
