but has anyone skipped undergrad? Or know of someone who has?
I know that even if it’s been done before it’ll be hard, but I’d like some opinion on how I might go about trying.
I really don’t see how it would be possible at all… maybe test out of freshman year courses, and then double up and get it done in 2 years… if you’re crazy studious. But at least in a US school I don’t see it possible not to go at all.
There are some joint degree programs that let you get a BS/MS in about 5 years. I’ve also heard of people getting into law school without a degree, but I don’t know if it is true.
I know of a guy with a business degree who did absolutely no science work, made a fortune, then wanted to design medical instruments when he was 50. He talked to the medical staff at [insert state university here] and they told him that if he started doing some research he’d probably get in their graduate program. Not exactly what you’re looking for, but you may want to give it a shot.
It happens sometimes in the post-sovietic area. And here also happens that you get PhD and then get a lower degree 
Dreamer for what it’s worth… I was accepted (but declined) into the University of Washington Technology MBA program without a degree , but I also have 10 years of experience in technology with the military.
I have a lawyer friend who told me a person in her Public Defender’s office passed the bar after working as a legal secretary for 11 years. She never even WENT to law school.
I would love to know what state she sat for the bar in, what schooling she had prior to taking exam (if any), and how long ago this was? -Thanks!
Most states require that you pass the bar exam after having had at least two years of full-time legal education. Of course, to have any legal education, one need’s a bachelor’s degree first.
So, technically, you don’t need a law degree. But, I’d be really impressed if anyone hired you without one. The story about the legal secretary is in the same book as crocodiles in the sewer.
