@StateBarCA I assume there’s an extension of this deadline for immediate repeaters? [Can you please strive for the exacting clarity you demand of examinees?]

@abolishcars26 @BarExamTracker @Katie_5280 FWIW, our dean said that registration for immediate retakers will open on Jan. 2, but emphasized that we can't actually register until results are released on Jan. 15. Perhaps there's confusion on dates between when registration page goes live & actual results? I'm betting 1/15.

@ExamSoft @Turnitin Congrats on the deal! @Turnitin must be looking to offset some big gains in 2020!!

#lawtwitter: Are you OK w/ overt racism in equating Bar pass rates?

Deans: Are you OK w/ historic pass rates & so-called "credential gaps" determining pass rates?

Examiners: Are you OK w/ basing pass rates on racism rather than our actual performance?

@StateBarCA @NCBEX @CaSupremeCourt @dp4ca 19/ The essay graders are also biased in grading, where scores can only be explained by apparent bias. Bolus found negative bias affected 16% of all Black applicant's essays!!

But when he joined w/ ALL minorities, the flags were negligible at "only" 5%.

@StateBarCA @NCBEX @CaSupremeCourt @dp4ca Skeptics: the connection between Bolus and Sander, and thus Bolus' connection to mismatch, goes beyond co-authoring academic papers and isn't attenuated.

They're the top-billed scholars on their "Project SEAPHE," with a stated goal of ending modern AA.

@StateBarCA @NCBEX @CaSupremeCourt @dp4ca Obviously, having 2 more months to study does not necessarily equal more success, and definitely not equitable success. Advocates have highlighted the disproportionate impact of extending the bar season on BIPOC for months. Again, stay tuned for the overt #racism of equating.
