The California Bar Exam Is a Disaster. Again! - Above the Law
Briefly

The California bar exam is currently facing significant challenges stemming from poor planning and bureaucratic delays that have led to chaos for applicants. The upcoming test, now administered by Kaplan, was born from the state bar exam's financial struggles. While Kaplan's involvement could enhance the examination process, particularly due to its experience, the abrupt transition timeline of just five months has resulted in a host of issues, including malfunctioning online portals and concerns among applicants regarding their preparation and accommodations.
If you're planning to take the upcoming California bar exam, congratulations! You're part of a grand tradition of applicants thrown into chaos by that state's unique blend of poor planning, bureaucratic dithering, and a near-mystical ability to make a bad situation worse.
The decision to transition to a test produced by Kaplan is sound, given their track record, but the rushed implementation with only five months notice has created significant issues.
