In this episode, Roberta discusses the unique stresses faced by law students and bar exam takers of color, sharing shocking statistics on bar passage rates for different racial groups.
Highlighting that Black examinees had a 57% first-time pass rate in 2022 compared to 83% for White examinees, Roberta delves into potential psychological causes, including stereotype threat. She touches on and reviews research and studies, including a mindset intervention program that significantly improved pass rates for underrepresented minorities.
In this episode Roberta reminds you of the importance of focusing on mindset, affirmations, and prayer, using the "MAP" strategy from her Blessed & Barred® program. Through scientific and testimonial evidence, Roberta stresses that a right mindset can significantly enhance chances of passing. We wrap up with prayer, encouraging listeners that with faith and the right approach, they can transcend statistics and achieve success.
