If you sat for the Virginia July 2024 bar exam, this is a reminder that you have until August 29th to sign up for the prototype NextGen bar exam which will be given on October 18 and 19th in Richmond. If you took another state’s bar exam there are numerous other testing locations and other dates for those jurisdictions (32 jurisdictions in all are participating). This is a great opportunity to see what the new bar exam will look like and also get compensated $1,500 for 9 hours of effort. The new exam will debut in just under 2 years (July 2026) so the NCBE is getting close to wrapping things up with this public prototype.
You should have received an email if you sat for the Virginia 2024 bar exam regarding this. Keep in mind, there is no guarantee Virginia will use the NextGen bar exam in the future as they have not committed to anything at this time.
