The coronavirus just delayed the country's No. 1 bar exam, and that could be a huge setback for law students seeking jobs at smaller New York firms

, or virtual alternatives to in-office work if necessary.

"Are firms going to be busy enough to hire people in light of the downturn in work caused by the pandemic? If you're No. 3 at Harvard, I don't think it makes any difference. If you're in the bottom half of your class at a top 100 law school, I think it would be significant.

This person, who attends one of the top 15 law schools, said he put his savings into his tuition bill and now felt he was disadvantaged when studying because of his living situation — with no backyard, a shared living space — and learning online while distractions abound. He said he was paying for an in-person education that he wasn't receiving, and felt that the conditions favored the wealthy.

Big law firms tend to hire law students without a law degree as law clerks. They keep them on for the time it takes them to pass the bar and are lenient in giving them two chances, Chess said. The New York bar is typically offered twice a year — in February and July.

Now, the administrators of the exam may find other locations where students can take the exam in the fall, Chess said, as the Javits Center is now expected to be used as a field hospital for coronavirus patients. He and more than 2,000 other students signed a letter to the National Conference of Bar Examiners, the producer of bar exams in many states, arguing in favor of diploma privilege.
