Kim Kardashian breaks down in tears while documenting failed bar exam journey, vows to ‘keep studying’

Kim Kardashian is giving fans an inside peek at her academic highs and lows.

Less than a month after revealing that her latest attempt to pass the bar exam and become a lawyer didn’t go her way, the reality TV star has shared a video showcasing the final two weeks — a.k.a. “the home stretch” — leading up to her July exam.

“I’ve shared so much of this journey with you,” Kardashian captioned her Sunday Instagram post. “And this summer I documented some of the final two weeks of studying — the ups, the downs, and everything in between.”

She continued, “On November 7th, I found out I didn’t pass the bar. It was disappointing, but it wasn’t the end. This dream means too much to me to walk away from, so I’m going to keep studying, keep learning, and keep showing up for myself until I get there.”

The video begins with Kim seeming very optimistic about her chances, two weeks ahead of the big exam. She explains that she took special care to clear her schedule — aside from looking after her kids, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm — in order to dedicate the final two weeks to studying. She also admitted to having some nerves about the test.

“You never will feel like you’re ready but you just have to jump in when you feel like you’re close,” Kim shared. “And that’s the way everything is in life.”

She then revealed that the exam results would arrive months later, on the same day that her lawyer drama, All’s Fair, was scheduled to premiere.

“So it’s either gonna be a really good night and a great premiere or… It will be,” she affirmed. The SKIMS founder was also captured taking notes, reviewing readings and participating in video calls with various tutors and professors.

Later footage, catching up with Kim just hours later, sees the actress tearful in bed. “I’m gonna film this because I’m so tired,” she began, pausing to wipe away tears. “Every time I feel like I’m a step ahead, something happens to try to stop me from doing this. And part of me wants to stop.”

She added, “I feel like my brain’s gonna explode, and I still have so much more to go.”

Pushing through the exhaustion, Kim later regained her confidence as the exam time grew closer, telling followers, “I feel really good. I feel prepared, and that’s the best feeling.”

In the comments section of the post, Kim got some love from her sister, Khloe who wrote “I am so so so proud of you!!! I saw how hard you studied and how badly you want this! Keep going! We don’t give up! You got this baby!

Prior to the result arriving, Kim expressed optimism about the exam during a visit to the The Graham Norton Show, telling the host, “I will be qualified in two weeks. I hope to practise law. Maybe in 10 years I think I’ll give up being Kim K and be a trial lawyer. That’s what I really want.”

Ultimately, Kim failed the exam but told fans that she came “so close” to passing and doesn’t plan to give up anytime soon.

“I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well-dressed one on TV,” Kardashian wrote on Instagram Stories in early November. “Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination.”

The latest video from Kim comes a week after she voiced outrage at the clairvoyants who assured her that she would pass the bar exam and become a lawyer.

“All of the f—ing psychics that we have met with, and that we’re obsessed with, are all f—ing full of s—,” she complained in footage shared to TikTok. “They all collectively, maybe four of them, have told me I was gonna pass the bar, so they’re all full pathological liars — don’t believe anything they say.”
