A Bar Exam Unlike Any Other: Board of Law Examiners Administers Historic Bar Exam
The North Carolina Board of Law Examiners (NCBLE) administered a bar exam unlike any other in July 2020. According to the National Conference of Bar Examiners, North Carolina was one of 24 jurisdictions nationwide that administered the exam on July 28-29. Several other jurisdictions rescheduled the exam or postponed it indefinitely.
Kimberly Herrick, who chairs the NCBLE, was pleased with the results and grateful for the efforts of volunteers and staff of the NCBLE, led by Executive Director Lee Vlahos.
“Lee worked so very hard,” Herrick said. “The good thing about this is that some of the changes we made in recent years, like upgrading our system so it is almost entirely paperless, were lucky in terms of timing for us because we have had very little interruption in our ability to do what we needed to do.
