Only 35% for St. Thomas. Damn.

a leading indicator of 2006 college football success?

So much for Florida Coastal's boast that they had the highest bar passage rate in the state

[WKRUSE]

Yeah, but I wouldn't give them too much flack.  They are still a few percentage points above the state average.

I think that UF and possibly Stetson are the only two schools that have fall and winter classes, so I don't know that we can really rely on the Feb bar exam when most people take the July test.

[WKRUSE]

What are you talking about?  We all have fall and winter classes.

[queencruella]

UF and Stetson are the only two schools that have students who graduate in December, I believe. At the other schools, people graduate in spring and take the July LSAT.

[WKRUSE]

I can't speak for the other schools.  We only graduate May classes, but if students have the credits to graduate early (usually night students finishing in 3.5 years), they can sit for the bar and then officially walk with the rest of their class the next spring.
