Do you guys know of any exam(s) in the US or Canada where you just take a very hard exam or more than one to become something?

Like for example back in the day. Not sure if it's like this any more but if you ever wanted to become a lawyer. You could have studied by yourself and than take the bar exam. It's probably a much harder route but I've heard people have done it in the past.

So I was wondering if there is anything like that. Accountant? Equities trader? I think for the equity trader you can just show your track record?

>m-muh smart but lazy

passing your 8th grade math test without studying does not qualify you to be a lawyer

You can still read for the bar in CA, but in no other state from what I know.

But if you once pass the bar in CA. Can you go work in other states?

The only thing that I think might match what you're asking are the exams for actuarial associateship and fellowship. I could be wrong about that, though. The exams for the actuarial associateships and fellowships are totally-respected in the industry.

You could get a bunch of certificates in software development, system administration, or information security; and maybe some companies would take those seriously. I personally take a dim view of those certifications and would not have a preference to interviewing a person with those certifications more than someone without those certifications.

Every other exam of note requires you to matriculate at the appropriate trade school: law school for the bar, medical school for the licenses to practice.

I can't remember for the CPA but I do believe they now require that you have a college degree and work experience.

No. You would need to sit for the bar in that state in some capacity, and you would be barred from doing so because of their school requirement.

Actuary.

I think there's like 7 exams or so?

I hear you need an actual degree as long as you can pass them.
