Retired P*** Star Asia Carrera Passes Texas Bar to Become Attorney

**California is not the hardest bar to pass.** The demographics of who takes it is what drops the pass rate, the test isn’t harder. - **CA also is a totally different test from every other state, so it’s an apples to oranges comparison.** - **CA has 28 unaccredited law schools**, ie schools the American Bar Association refuses to recognize due to accepting basically everyone + bad bar pass rates, employment outcomes etc - There are 34 unaccredited law schools in the US. 28 are in CA. **CA alone is responsible for 83% of all unaccredited law schools in the US.** - Unaccredited law schools drop CA’s pass rate: **the pass rate for grads of unaccredited law schools (83% of which are in CA) is only 17%** - **Half the people who take the CA bar exam (51.88%) never went to an ABA law school in CA** - **CA has a ton of international people taking the CA bar, far more than most states. English isn’t their first language, and they have very low pass rates**: From 07-2025, 9%, nearly 1 in every 10, are not American & have no prior American education. In the last 5 years, 14% of CA bar takers were foreign. In July 2025, a whopping 18% weren’t even American. - **Internationals drop the pass rate- the overall pass rate for non-Americans is only 17%.** - Even accounting for all the foreigners & grads of predatory unaccredited law schools, the overall pass rate for CA’s bar exam has been identical to the rest of the country the last few years. - Grads of accredited (legit) law schools in CA have the same pass rate as the rest of the US. Their pass rate isn’t lower. - Overall, CA’s pass rate hasn’t even been lower than the rest of the US in a while. They also changed the grading a couple years ago to make the pass rate higher. CA is a totally different test. It only tests CA law, most other states use a different test with different questions + different law. That alone makes it impossible to compare, CA’s bar exam is totally different. CA’s pass rate was lower cuz of the demographics of people taking it. Since it tests CA law, familiarity with CA matters a lot. Half the people taking the CA bar not going to law school in CA + having no education on CA law is the reason their pass rate was lower. The pass rate got lowered even more from CA having 83% of all unaccredited law schools in the US- those predatory schools accept nearly everyone & are notorious for terrible bar pass rates. California’s bar isn’t harder, their pass rate was lower cuz of the demographics of people taking it. Their pass rate has also been on par with the rest of the US for several years now, and it’s impossible to say CA’s test is harder when it’s a totally different test with different questions.

No, it is not harder as compared to other states bar exams or UBE (Unified Bar Exam). However, as CA does not require one to have a law degree to take the bar, a lot more unqualified people take it and, hence, the failure percentage is higher.

I dislike her a lot, but I still give her credit for trying. She seems genuinely interested in criminal reform

Florida and California are the hardest to pass.

It’s not that hard. It’s just that there are a lot more folks who should not be taking the exam taking it and why the passage rate is lower.

Yes, that's what the above post said.

There's merit to what you're saying and I agree with a lot of it. However, my one quibble would be that I think we need to take the stigma off sex work entirely. 90% of the internet is p***, Cable is p***, and sex is being used to sell fast food hamburgers. The way that this country is steeped up to it's eyeballs in onastic pursuits while being inches away from a Victorian-Era fainting couch is absurd. At this point, it's just a job that rife with exploitation, as well as self empowerment, and it needs to be treated as such. The ostracism we show the people in the industries enables the predation you're (correctly) calling out.

I heard that a lot of people post things on Listnook that they can’t back up with facts.

This is the thing that always amused me about people who automatically dismiss “Adult Entertainers”. Everyone enjoys sex, these people just happen to be comfortable doing it on camera with a pool of other “Professionals”. Y’know, they test to make sure everyone is clean and, the good ones, make sure the people actually want to work together instead of just choosing from a hat and hoping chemistry forms. But their openness about sex usually means they are open about all kinds of other topics too. So you can get some real interesting insights from people who see “The Darker Side” on a regular basis. Lot of good Gallows Humor to be found too. And of course, lots of trashy reality TV caliber human drama. Always found the “Stay In Your Lane” people particularly funny because what f****** lane? At the end of the day they are still a human who lives here with the rest of us, why aren’t they allowed to have opinions?

Probably will never hear about it again thanks to fortnite and other Epic Games fuckery

The podcast "My year in MENSA" is a really good look at how dumb it and IQ tests in general are.

Maybe tallslim was following her music career back then
