Inside Kim Kardashian’s Law Notes: the Truth Behind Her Intense Bar Exam Prep
By Robert Thorne
The raw breakdown Kardashian shared in late 2025 captured the universal mental exhaustion of bar examinees. In the video clips, surrounded by whiteboard diagrams and legal texts, she sobbed openly over timed practice sessions and Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) scoring percentages. Bar prep is famous for breaking down even the most confident students, generating acute imposter syndrome and cognitive fatigue.
Her private prep program involved renowned legal tutors like Sam Farkas and Chuck Shonholtz, specialists known for dissecting state bar exam essay scoring rubrics. The tutor sessions focused heavily on mechanical precision: spotting obscure exceptions to hearsay, distinguishing between unilateral and bilateral contracts, and managing strict time allocations under exam conditions. Even with high-level coaching, an examinee must sit alone in the examination hall, tackling 200 multiple-choice questions and five grueling one-hour essays alongside a 90-minute Performance Test.
Managing that study burden alongside running multi-million-dollar brands like Skims, shooting reality programming, and raising four children introduces severe scheduling strain. Commentators in the legal space have noted that while her private aircraft and household staff relieve domestic burdens, switching mental gears from brand boardrooms to the Rule Against Perpetuities demands rare cognitive discipline.
