Actually, Dale, the ABA now requires that all takers are reported. Please see ABA 301-6.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI am an advocate of the High Court of Kenya seeking to sit the Pennsylvania Bar exam. I have looked at their website only to discover that I cannot locate any section relating to foreign law graduates. Does the said bar exam allow for foreign lawyers to sit the exam?
Kindly assist!
