More students from three top public universities fail to make it through the Kenya School of Law (KSL) examinations than those from other institutions offering law degrees. Bar examination is a statutory requirement of any law graduate seeking to join the legal profession in Kenya. Overall, 79 per cent of law graduates who failed Bar Examinations in the last eight years are graduates of these public universities. Of these, some 5,298 candidates are still in the system making attempts to pass Bar Examinations. The report further recommends that a policy be put in place to cap the maximum number of attempts on the Bar Examination after failure.
