As one of the few practicing attorneys who has never taken the Bar Exam, it seems ridiculous to me. 

Maybe because I haven't taken it so I am not affected by the weird "rite of passage" kind of mentality, but it seems pretty obvious its not relevant to actual practice once you are practicing. 

A better measure of a successful attorney would be to look at their organizational and scheduling skills. The worst attorneys I know of **simply don't show up.** 
 @caac5ce5 It's so true. Most disciplinary matters related to failure to respond to clients. 

Are you in Wisconsin or NH?
