I, for one, support this idea. Make it impossible. Then we can corner the industry and have it all to ourselves until AI makes us all redundant.
I have often wondered how hard their bar exams actually are. I imagine a lot of the failures are from people who went to 'bottom-tier' law schools, didn't prep, etc.
I am no rocket surgeon, but I found the bar exams pretty easy overall. Having said that, they are just establishing the lowest common denominator, which enables them to say, 'oh, so smart,' so the government can look like it is regulating the industry.
I know the SEC courses for the financial industry were harder, in a different way, because they relied on more 'tricks' than the Canadian ones, but the Canadian ones are no joke. Having said that, 60% to pass seems awfully low to be handling people's retirements.
