Her loved ones were “all excited and proud of her and wanted to surprise her to celebrate this accomplishment,” a source told Us Weekly.
“Her law mentors are also surprising her, and she has no clue they will be there,” the source said ahead of the lunch.

“She got her degree from TEMU,” one said.
“Is she going to win cases by showing up at court half n*ked???” one asked.

“When will she have time for court cases ?? She’s too busy putting on her makeup and getting botox. Lol,” said one critic.
Others tsk-tsked at the amount of time she took to complete the program.
“Is it supposed to take this long?” one asked, while another wrote,
“Took her long enough,” one said, while another wrote, “You didn’t graduate, you just caught up.”

Amid the criticism, the Kardashians star also received congratulatory messages from many, including her good friend Ivanka Trump.

During the graduation party, one of Kim’s mentors called her journey towards becoming a lawyer “the most inspiring.”
The mentor said the aspiring lawyer dedicated “18 hours a week, 48 weeks a year” to the program “for six straight years.”
“That’s a total of 5,184 hours of legal study,” she added. “That’s time she carved out while raising four children, running businesses, filming television shows and showing up in courtrooms to advocate for others.”

During the lunch, Kim sat on stage with a graduation cap and got her diploma while her children, Chicago, 7, Saint, 9, and Psalm, 5, watched.
It is unclear whether Kim’s firstborn daughter, North West, 11, was present for the celebratory occasion.
The surprise lunch included placemats that had Kim’s study flashcards printed on them.

As part of the Law Office Study Program, the social media star began her apprenticeship with a San Francisco law firm in 2018.
She passed the First-Year Law Student’s Examination, also known as the “baby bar,” in 2021 after failing thrice.
“OMFGGGG I PASSED THE BABY BAR EXAM!!!!” she wrote on X at the time.
“I failed this exam 3 times in 2 years, but I got back up each time and studied harder and tried again until I did it!!! (I did have COVID on the 3rd try w a 104 fever but I’m not making excuses),” she added.

At the time, she said her late father, Robert Kardashian Sr., who was O.J. Simpson’s attorney during the notorious 1995 trial, would be “so proud” of her and would have been the “best study partner.”
Kim has passed the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) in March this year.
She will have to pass the California Bar Exam before she can officially practice law in the state.

With her eyes set on criminal justice reform, the businesswoman previously spoke about how she can do criminal law “in [her] sleep.”
“First year of law school, you have to cover three subjects: criminal law, torts, and contracts,” she told Vogue in 2019.

Kim found torts “the most confusing” and contracts “the most boring.”
“Crim law I can do in my sleep,” she said. Took my first test, I got a 100. Super easy for me.”
“The reading is what really gets me,” she added. “It’s so time-consuming. The concepts I grasp in two seconds.”
“Hope she uses it to silence her ex,” read one comment online

I don't like the whole grifting family but getting education is not something I will s h i t on. Yes, she has tons of money and support, but still has to do the studying herself. No one can sit the bar exam in her place so if she manages that, good for her.

But until she does that, she cannot go around calling herself a lawyer.

And she passed the "Baby Bar" three times! And didn't go to law school. It's something for sure but not all that...

As a university instructor whose university caters primarily to veterans, returning students, older first-timers, parents with existing careers, and first-gen college students, brava to her. Doing this in one's 30s and 40s (or beyond) is difficult. I may dislike her and everything the Kardashians represent, but her achievement is real, and difficult. And her aim appears to be laudable: criminal justice reform ain't easy and won't be easy.
