Kim Kardashian has provided us with an update on her law career after revealing that she got 100% on a mid-term law exam.
The reality star, 42, started her criminal justice reform work back in October 2017 when learning about the case of Alice Marie Johnson.

She had been in prison since October 1996 for helping facilitate communications in a drug trafficking case.
Kim started to fight for her case after then-President Barack Obama granted clemency to 231 people in 2016, but Johnson wasn't included.
With the help of the SKIMS founder, Johnson was released from prison in 2020, and the Kardashians star continued to advocate for other wrongfully convicted inmates.
Kim has also been calling for the temporary release of a jailed father whose daughter was killed in the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.
She wants to follow in the footsteps of her lawyer father, Robert Kardashian Sr., who got O.J. Simpson acquitted in the 1995 murder trial.
In 2021, Kim revealed she passed the first-year law exam, aka the 'baby bar'.
And most recently, in an interview with Savannah Guthrie on the Today show, the mum-of-four says she scored 100 on a mid-term.
"I'm still studying. I'm actually in constitutional law 1 and 2 right now. It's my toughest; not the biggest fan of it, I've been sharing my struggle," she said.
"But with that said, I took a midterm yesterday. I got 100 percent and then I got a 95 percent on my other midterm. So I feel — that gives me that boost of confidence again just to push through."
The SKIMS founder added: "Hopefully in the next year or so, I can take the official bar and be done."
Just last month, the reality star said she would be willing to give up her TV career to become a full-time lawyer.
Speaking at the TIME100 Summit, Kim said: "I would be just as happy being an attorney full time.
"The journey just really opened up my eyes so much.
"It gets overwhelming because there's so much to be done ... I brought my sister Khloé [Kardashian] to a prison for the first time last week, and that was really eye-opening for her."
Kim hopes it will be 'her life's most meaningful work'.
"I hope so," she said. "I always joke with my mom — who's my manager — I say Kim K. is retiring, and I'm just going to be an attorney."
