Virginia has posted the summer (July 2023) bar exam results on their website and you can see the full pass lists here. Nearly 75% (74.91%) of all test takers passed the exam, with the University of Virginia taking the top place with 100% of ALL test takers passing the exam (both first time and repeats). Big congratulations to everyone who passed! Interesting to see that the first time test taker pass rate was only slightly higher at 77.24%, likely due to not as many repeat takers being present this summer.
The flip side of all these pass stats is that a quarter of everyone who showed up this summer to Roanoke did not pass the exam, a full 25%. That’s a lot of people. Don’t be too discouraged, the Virginia bar exam is one of the most difficult (if not the most difficult) exams in the country.
The swearing in ceremony is December 6th, congratulations again to everyone who passed!
