Maybe, worth a shot? No law degree, yet can take bar exam...

Wikipedia says you need at least one year of law school experience to do this in the state of New York.

I wasn't aware we were still in the 1800's.

Don't do it. Nobody would hire you, and having your own firm just starting out is pretty much instafail.

Good luck finding a firm that is OK with sponsoring you

Don't come to a site specifically dedicated to the pursuit of a top law degree and expect anyone to tell you this is a good idea.

Flame or moron.
