How difficult is the judicial examination?

Division examination, the full name of the national judicial examination, is currently called the national unified legal professional qualification examination (referred to as the law examination). The "Implementation Measures for the National Unified Legal Professional Qualification Examination" issued on 20 18 changed the original national judicial examination into the national unified legal professional qualification examination. The most direct difference is to expand the scope of the legal examination, which was originally only attended by judicial personnel, to include not only judges, prosecutors and notaries who need to pass the examination, but also staff engaged in administrative punishment decision review, administrative reconsideration and administrative adjudication, as well as legal consultants and legal arbitrators.

The earliest prototype of the judicial examination is 1986, which determines the lawyer qualification examination system. Later, with the promulgation and implementation of the Judges Law and the Procurator Law, the court and the procuratorate system established the assessment system for the first judge and the first prosecutor respectively. After the new millennium, with the adoption of the amendments to the Judges Law and the Public Prosecutor Law, the judicial examination system was established. At that time, the judicial examination was mainly aimed at three groups of people who had obtained lawyer qualifications, newly appointed judges and newly appointed prosecutors.

With the great improvement of the rule of law in China, in 20 14 years, in order to regularize, professionalize and professionalize the rule of law team, it was proposed to "improve the legal professional access system, improve the national unified legal professional qualification examination system, and establish a unified pre-service training system for legal professionals". In 20 15, the Opinions on Perfecting the National Unified Legal Professional Qualification System was issued, and the judicial examination system was determined to be adjusted to the national unified legal professional qualification examination system, and the relevant laws began to be adjusted on a large scale until the implementation measures of the national unified legal professional qualification examination was issued in 20 18, which determined the transformation from the judicial examination to the national unified legal professional qualification examination.

Since the birth of the judicial examination, the lowest pass rate was in 2002, only 6.68%. However, from 2005 to 2008, the pass rate gradually increased, and the highest rate was 25% in 2008. In recent years, the passing rate of judicial examination is basically around 10%. So it's hard to say that the judicial examination only refers to those who failed 90%. After all, there are people.
