Clinton J. Kuykendall, a graduate of Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law, said he “did well” when he took the Missouri bar exam in 2015. But he did even better when he took the Texas bar exam in February, tying for the top score with Michelle Haws, a graduate of South Texas College of Law Houston.
According to Susan Henricks, executive director of the Texas Board of Law Examiners, 1,253 individuals took the exam in February. The top score that could have been made was 1,000 and exam takers had to score at least 675 to pass, Henricks said. Kuykendall and Haws each scored 842.
