I've heard that the mysterious "bar exam" that one must pass in order to get lawyerized is not a test, but rather a 5-hour procure during which you are made to perform a provocative "bar dance" (aka pole dance) for the amusement of a crowd of elderly biglaw partners... and also your soul is forcibly removed through your nose by way of powerful vacuums.
That's just what I've heard.
There could be some sort of downside as well.
