He can't go to law school because he doesn't have a bachelor's degree which is a prerequisite. Say what you will about Kim K but she isn't stupid, she just doesn't have common sense.
You can go to law school without a bachelor's degree.
High INT / low WIS. Classic combo.
That and law school just means you're very good at memorization and recall. It doesn't mean you're an intelligent god. Same with medical school, I've met frighteningly stupid people who memorized their way through both.
You can be intelligent and still stupid. Ask any owner of a ginger tom
There is no such thing as general intelligence. Favorite example: Dr. Ben Carson was a pediatric neurosurgeon. One of the best in the world. He also thinks the great pyramids were grain silos.
My brother-in-law's father is one of the most sought-after knee and back surgeons in the state where they live. To say this guy knows his shit would be an understatement... outside of the operating toom, I've never met someone so clueless. Somedays it amazes me he somehow managed learning to put his pants on first, and THEN his shoes. Hes not mentally disabled whatsoever yet struggles to grasp concepts that require any meaningful thought and yet is a very well know highly skilled, knowledgeable and talented leader in his very advanced field for ~30 years and still going strong. There's nothing wrong with him aside from being a bubbly airhead.
That’s how my dad is. Mechanical engineering degree but is entirely clueless about basically everything else, ranging from household cleaning to understanding other people’s motivations.
Oh she’s stupid
Who is Kim K because if you're talking about the Kardashian then she doesn't have a degree either
Yeah did some light digging and you're right, she doesn't have a bachelor's but can still become a lawyer.
She's doing some law apprenticeship and has hopes of studying the law well enough to become a lawyer.

To my understanding she failed the baby bar 3 or 4 times... I believe she's been at it for... 6 years now or maybe more and is behind those who simply just went to college for their 4 years.
I assume she's trying to pass in California which is one of the very few states that let you sit for the bar exam without a JD from an accredited law school or any degree at all. In exchange for allowing that California also has the hardest bar exam of any state in the union.
Also lawyers don't just go to four years of college. They have to do that and get a degree in any subject and then attend law school which in the US is only ever a postgraduate program which requires a bachelor's degree as a prerequisite. And even those who complete both of those levels of education often fail the California bar exam multiple times.
Self study in comparison would be nearly impossible and the only way to actually succeed would probably be to apprentice under a practicing lawyer for many years, learn the trade that way, take an exam prep course and then maybe be able to pass. Granted in the olden days lawyers like Abraham Lincoln didn't have any degree either and they were usually admitted to the bar after this type of apprenticeship.
Hmm disagree, she knows people and their psychology. I think she’s demonstrated a lot of great business sense too
