Ohio and Maryland have notched their highest bar exam pass rates since 2013 and 2014, respectively.
Both jurisdictions on Monday announced the results of their first-ever online bar exams, administered Oct. 5 and 6—making them the first outside of Idaho to unveil pass rates on that exam, which was given in 30 states. Ohio reported an overall pass rate of 77%, which is the highest since 2013, when the pass rate on the July test hit 82%. According to the Ohio Supreme Court, 958 people took the October online exam, which was rescheduled from July due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and 85% of first-time takers passed. In July 2019, 73% of bar exam takers passed.
