Graduates of University of San Diego and Loyola laws schools posted some of the best pass rates on the February bar exam, according to data released Friday by the state bar.
The new report shows 43% of USD alumni and 42% of Loyola grads posted passing scores for the test, which set a modern-day record for the lowest pass rate on the notoriously difficult exam—26.8%. Other California-based schools with pass rates above the overall success rate include Santa Clara University (39%), Pepperdine (38%), Southwestern (35%) and California Western (34%).
