Kim Kardashian recently opened up about the intense emotional and physical struggles she faced while preparing for the bar exam in the latest episode of her reality show, The Kardashians. With just nine days left before the pivotal test, Kardashian reflected on the pressures of her long journey toward becoming a lawyer.
During the episode, filmed prior to receiving her exam results, Kim revealed that she had hit a breaking point. Describing her preparation as overwhelming, she expressed feeling both physically and mentally exhausted. “I’m absolutely gonna cry, cause it’s f***ing exhausting,” she told the cameras, highlighting the weight of her aspirations.
Her stress was further intensified by a back injury that hindered her mobility, making it difficult to focus on her studies. She candidly shared her frustrations, questioning the timing of her physical limitations during such a crucial period, saying, “Last night, I was like, why the f**k is this happening?”
Amidst the chaos of her preparation, Kardashian acknowledged the emotional toll the process took on her. Despite thinking she wouldn’t be among those who experienced such high stress before the bar exam, she admitted, “I’m not that person, but I get it. It’s really a lot. Now I really, really get it.” This realization underscored the personal impact of her final stretch of studying, which she found to be especially draining.
As she grappled with the enormity of the upcoming test, a producer noted they’d never witnessed her desire for something so thoroughly. This prompted Kim to contemplate the implications of failing the exam, expressing that if she did not pass, the thought of attempting it again in the near future felt daunting due to time constraints and mental fatigue.
Months after the exam, Kardashian confirmed publicly that she did not pass. However, she reframed her setback as a temporary pause in her journey rather than an ending. On her Instagram Stories, she conveyed her ongoing commitment to becoming a lawyer, stating that while she wasn’t yet a legal professional, the experience fueled her determination rather than dissuading it.
Kardashian later shared clips of her study sessions, emphasizing the importance of her goal despite her disappointment. She maintained that the feelings of letdown were valid yet fleeting.
New episodes of The Kardashians continue to air on Hulu, providing viewers with further insights into Kim’s journey and the challenges she faces along the way.
