Pass the bar without law school?

Yes.

Even if they could, they’d be an absolutely terrible lawyer who couldn’t function in the occupation.

Maybe. But there are plenty of terrible lawyers who went to law school.

Well, now that any idiot can go to college and get a degree, it prevents the idiot from feeling bad about themselves.

However, with IQ tests, not everyone tests the same and there are people who do better than others.

We can’t have that.

Plus certification speaks for itself on the resume. It states you know what you are doing and there’s no need for the employer to test you to make sure you know.

For example, Medical Terminology. You can take a college course and say you know it, but if you pass a certification course it SHOWS you know it. These days what is on the resume counts for more than what you took to get your degree.

“Colleges are credential mills. “

That’s correct.
