Illinois Law School Grads Ask State To Let Them Skip The Bar Exam Because Of COVID-19 – WBEZ (Chicago)

“We don’t have the resources to keep extending our inability to work because we can’t be attorneys without being licensed,” said Anabel Abarca, a 2020 graduate from the Loyola University Chicago School of Law.

They probably would not pass the bar.
More corruption in Illinois

Meh. I say let them have it.

I took the Illinois Bar 24 years ago. 26 different subjects I had to master, and I did. Passed the first time too.

Today, I’d be lucky if I could even recall what half of those 26 subjects were, let alone the details of those subjects. A lot of good that did.

Wisconsin has its diploma privilege. Illinois should as well, especially in today’s Covid-19 environment.

I don’t think I’d want any of them to represent me if I ever need a lawyer. As my grandfather, who was a doctor, said “someone has to make the top half of the class possible.”

Another “ask” from the permanent victim class and the whining liberals. They don’t want to take the bar exam. They want a participation law license like the participation trophies they got in little league.
