Higher pass rates for the February sitting for Pennsylvania's bar exam suggest law schools are doing a better job of preparing students for the exam, according to Pennsylvania Board of Law Examiners Executive Director Mark Dows. The February 2006 pass rate was 58 percent, down from 2005's high of 62 percent but up from pre-2005 February pass rates closer to 50 percent. "I think this is a trend across the nation that there are better-trained students coming out of law schools," said Dows.
