The ABA Journal is reporting that the Oregon State Bar Board of Bar Examiners has adopted a task force report suggesting supervised practice or law school experiential-learning programs as bar exam alternatives for attorney licensure. The Oregon Supreme Court is now considering the recommendations in the report.
You can read the full report here.
The report does not propose eliminating the use of a bar exam. Candidates can still take the bar exam and use the results to gain admission, but the proposal now adds two alternative ways for admission. For candidates who go to law school in Oregon, there is a law school experiential pathway, and for candidates who come from out of state, there is a supervised practice pathway.
The ABA Journal has more details here.
