dc.description.abstractUsing data gathered from sixty public law schools relating to the years 2019, 2020, and 2021, this Article demonstrates that there is a statistically significant negative correlation between the percentage of students in a school who receive accommodations and the school’s first-time bar passage rate. In other words, this study shows that as the percentage of accommodated students in a law school increased, its bar passage rate decreased. This Article establishes a prima facie case that something is wrong with the accommodation granting process and argues that state board of bar examiners should provide more data and transparency on examinee accommodations.en_US
