Kim Kardashian Defends "Real" Accomplishment of Law School Graduation

In addition to her apprenticeship, Kim also took the "baby bar" exam—which signifies the completion of the first year of study for students taking unaccredited law classes—three times before passing it in 2021, as well as the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE), a crucial test needed to become a license lawyer. 

And the SKIMS founder acknowledged that none of those achievements would have been possible without the help of her friend Van Jones and her mentors Jessica Jackson and Erin Haney, as well as Sam Farkas and Chuck Shonholtz, who she noted "dedicated countless hours" to help her succeed.

"This experience has shaped me profoundly and I'll carry its lessons with me forever," she added. "Here's to celebrating resilience and new beginnings!"

Of course, Kim didn't only celebrate her career milestone with an inspiring message. Following her graduation, the reality TV personality threw a small commencement ceremony attended by family and friends such as her sister Khloe Kardashian and her and ex Kanye West's kids Saint West, 9, Chicago West, 7, and Psalm West, 6. 

As Kim—who also shares North West, 11, with Kanye—told her inner circle during the festivities, "All of you guys have been on this journey with me."
