<p>Kim Kardashian has cleared a key hurdle in her unconventional quest to become an attorney.</p>.<p>The reality television star and entrepreneur said Monday on Twitter that she passed California's First-Year Law Students’ Examination—a daylong test required of aspiring lawyers in the state who are not taking the traditional path of attending an accredited law school.</p>.<p>"OMFGGGG I PASSED THE BABY BAR EXAM!!!!” she wrote to her 70.7 million followers, posting photos of herself posing in a bright blue jumpsuit. “For anyone who doesn’t know my law school journey, know this wasn’t easy or handed to me.”</p>.<p>Passing the test—better known as the baby bar—means Kardashian can continue her legal studies and will be able to take the full bar exam.
