: Discourse.netBar Pass Rates Posted
By Professor University of Miami School of Law
The 2009 July Florida Bar Pass Rates are out. In order to illustrate my point that Bar Pass Rates are Over-Rated As A Measure of Law School Quality, I thought I'd not only sort the results, but calculate the number failing (the bar reports test-takers and test-passers). The numbers are in most cases reasonably small...

As I said before, "there certainly comes a point where a substantially lower bar pass rate than other schools in the state is a sign of a problem that a law school should work to fix." FAMU's score seems to suggest that, despite recent improvements, there's still work to be done there.
