Fowler School of Law Grads Exceed February California Bar Pass Rate to Rank 6th in State for First-Time Takers
September 29, 2016
Once again, Chapman University Dale E. Fowler School of Law graduates have exceeded the California ABA-accredited law school average pass rate for first-time takers of the February state bar exam. Fowler School of Law achieved the sixth highest bar pass rate of the 21 ABA-accredited law schools in California in that category, ranking 15 percentage points above the California ABA-school state average of 47.5 percent.
This is the 11th time that Fowler School of Law graduates have exceeded the California ABA-accredited law schools’ average bar pass rate for first-time takers of the bar since beginning its Bar Exam Preparation Program in 2009. The unique in-house program complements students’ traditional coursework to prepare them for the California and out-of-state bar examinations. Included in the program are for-credit courses taught during the academic year and a supplemental bar prep program following graduation. The supplemental course includes topic reviews, practice essays and performance exams with immediate feedback, four mock bar exams, and live review of 700 multiple choice questions from the mock exams.
