Komuro shared the exam results with the head of the legal office where he used to work as a paralegal in Japan, NHK reported. He will aim to pass the next test in July. "Unfortunately, I failed the exam. I needed five more points to pass," Komuro was quoted as telling him. "I will take the next exam in July and make the utmost effort." Komuro's name was not on the latest list of people to have passed the bar exam, which was made public online Thursday. There is a chance that he may lose his job as a paralegal at the legal firm in New York. If he is working on a student visa, it could expire as early as May, according to Nikkan Sports. Having previously failed the New York state bar exam last July, Komuro, whose wife is the niece of Emperor Naruhito, took the test again in February this year. According to the exam's organizers, 3,068 people took the February exam, with the overall pass rate standing at 45%. Among all repeat test-takers, the passing rate came to 30%.
And, apparently, ramen costs -- gasp -- Y2500 in New York. And other dumbass crap. And of course they're still talking about the resolution of his families money troubles. I wonder when they'll lose interest and let them go in peace.
