Can I take the lawyer's qualification exam myself?

China citizens who have full capacity for civil conduct and good conduct, have a bachelor's degree or above recognized by the national education administrative department, have not been criminally punished for intentional crimes, have not been expelled from public office by state organs, have not been revoked their lawyer's license, and have not been banned from taking judicial examinations for violating examination discipline; It should be noted that in order to effectively select legal talents, any person who has taken the judicial examination and obtained a class A certificate or a class B certificate but has not yet obtained a bachelor's degree or above in an institution of higher learning may not register for the national judicial examination again. (Legal professional qualification certificates are divided into three categories: A, B and C.) It should be noted that the above-mentioned "bachelor's degree or above" includes bachelor's degree graduation certificates issued by private schools that have obtained relevant examination and approval procedures, bachelor's degree graduation certificates issued by adult higher education series, bachelor's degree graduation certificates issued by ordinary colleges and universities, bachelor's degree graduation certificates obtained through self-study exams, and distance education graduation certificates recognized by the Ministry of Education. For the sake of prudence, in view of the complexity and diversity of undergraduate diplomas issued by party schools and military schools, it is recommended to consult the competent judicial examination department of the local judicial bureau to ensure that they are correct. {Source: Kao {Kao}

Persons with academic qualifications from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and foreign institutions of higher learning may also sign up for the national judicial examination after their academic qualifications have been certified by the Study Abroad Service Center of the Ministry of Education.

On the question of whether candidates who have passed all the individual subjects, including graduation thesis defense, can register if they can't get a diploma when they register. The Ministry of Justice stipulates that "all qualified personnel in the single subject of the self-study exam can sign up for the national judicial examination with the certificate of qualification in the single subject (all subjects) and the certificate issued by the education administrative department responsible for self-study registration (self-study office). However, when applying for a legal professional qualification certificate after passing the examination, you must hold a formal graduation certificate. At the same time, according to the relevant policies, the registration conditions for some economically backward and ethnic minority areas are appropriately relaxed, and law majors can also sign up for the exam.
