February 2025 Cal Bar Exam update – March makeup days?
Hello everyone.
As expected, the Cal Bar/Meazure Learning had issues today on the first day of the February 2025 Cal Bar Exam.
The Cal Bar owned it, and evidently established contingency plans in case there were significant technical and customer service challenges between applicants and Meazure Learning.
The Cal Bar sent out a notice to applicants tonight indicating, in part, “We know that many of you, however, faced significant technical and customer service challenges. . . In advance of the exam, the State Bar took measures to ensure that a makeup opportunity would be available, if needed, for applicants who experienced significant technical issues. As such, we had already planned to offer a makeup opportunity on March 3 and 4 for those of you who had experienced technical issues beyond your control and were unable to connect to the platform and launch the exam as well as for those who were unable to complete the exam.
After Meazure Learning platform performance Day 1, particularly for in-person test takers, we know that additional remediation measures must be put in place for those who were unable to cut and paste in the Performance Test, as well as for those who were disconnected and could not complete one or more essay questions.
Options being explored include offering the opportunity to retake the Performance Test, offering the opportunity to retake those essay questions you were unable to access, or making psychometrically appropriate scoring adjustments.”
Stay tuned for further updates about the February 2025 Cal Bar Exam.
