<p>We don’t know for sure, because the VA bar apparently only releases percentages, not absolute numbers. And for some reason, Liberty didn’t mention the number either. But we can speculate.</p>
<p>In my state, about 90% of first-time takers are in the July exam, with only about 10% in the February exam. I don’t think this is unusual.</p>
<p>The latest College Navigator stats show 57 JD grads from Liberty in 2009-2010. Let’s make the (unrealistic) assumption that they all took the VA bar. So if about 10% of those took the February exam, then that would be about 6 examinees. </p>
<p>Now it’s obviously not realistic to assume that all Liberty JD grads took the VA bar exam – many of them doubtless took the bar exam in other states instead. So that number may be too high.</p>
<p>In any case, it is reasonable to suppose that the actual number of Liberty grads who took the VA bar exam for the first time in Feb 2011 was in the single digits.</p>
