Mostly finances, economics, mathematics and law. Looking into self teaching a JD track (currently a Math undergrad at UIUC so ill probably follow the JD curriculum here) but I need to pass the Bar, which requires having a proper JD from an accredited university.

Depends on the state. In Virginia, California, Vermont, and Washington you can take the bar exam without going to law school. It requires an "apprenticeship" with a licensed attorney.

In Virginia, this is a news story once a year or so. As I recall, it takes three years X number of hours per week. And you're doing it for free -- you can't be paid. (This is the path Kim Kardashian is taking in California, too, to become a lawyer.)

Interesting. Ive only looked into Wyoming and Illinois. If I pursue this path, what should I do to prepare?

Thanks

Look at the requirements for each state. I know Virginia is a three year apprenticeship program. I think California is four years. Finding a mentor is supposedly not all that easy. Good luck.
