KIM Kardashian has quietly decided to push back taking the bar exam to early 2026, The U.S. Sun can exclusively report.
The reality star, 44, has frequently spoken about her dream to become a lawyer like her father Robert Sr., but stopped talking about her studies in recent months.

“Kim had originally planned to take the California bar exam in February 2025, but she is pushing it back to 2026,” an insider said.
“The reality is Kim hasn’t been able to study much for it yet, and there’s no way she’s going to be able to tackle the exam in February.”
“She’s barely gotten through 20% of the coursework.”
The insider explained Kim was determined to become an official lawyer before her new legal show, All’s Fair, premiered next year.
Kim will play a top-notch divorce lawyer in the Ryan Murphy-directed Hulu drama, which is filming right now in LA and also features Glenn Close and Naomi Watts.
But now, that goal will no longer be possible, the source said.

“Kim hates any questions about her pursuit of her legal credentials. She gets mad when anyone brings it up.
“She says she’s a full-time working mom of four with a business empire, so of course it’s going to take a little longer.
“But she’s also determined to have the damn law degree to her name.
“She’s very stub𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 on things like this and there’s no way in hell she is going to have it be said that she didn’t get it.”
An insider close to Kim denied that she has delayed her bar exam date.
LEGAL DREAMS
Kim’s legal studies have been frequently covered on her Hulu reality show, The Kardashians.
In early 2021, she claimed she was studying over ten hours a day for the 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 bar.
“It’s the hardest thing for me to be away from the kids, but I have to really dedicate myself and do it,” she said.
She passed the 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 bar later that year after failing three times previously.
Kim announced on Instagram: “OMFGGGG I PASSED THE BABY BAR EXAM!!!!
“Looking in the mirror, I am really proud of the woman looking back today in the reflection.”
“For anyone who doesn’t know my law school journey, know this wasn’t easy or handed to me.
“I failed this exam 3 times in 2 years, but I got back up each time and studied harder and tried again until I did it!”
JUGGLING BUSINESSES
In addition to her acting and future legal career, Kim is still the founder, CEO and model of SKIMS, her worldwide clothing and shapewear brand, and SKKN, her skincare line.
She also, of course, still is the star and executive producer of The Kardashians.
On top of all that, she also co-founded private equity firm Skky Partners.
And Kim is a single mom to her four kids with ex Kanye West: North, 11, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5.
She recently said she largely parents them on her own without her troubled ex, with help from friends and nannies.
