I have bachelor degree in literature and art and master degree in information systems management. I'm interested in applying for law school and taking patent bar although i can't get into law school. At graduate schoo, i took more than 40 units of software engineeting classes and have more than 5 yrs of working experience in software engineering area. can anybody tell me if i'm still qualifying for taking patent bar exam? Thanks! What if I go to law school and pass bar exam. Do I still need to take extra classes to meet requirement to be patent lawyer?

No, you have to be a lawyer to take the patent bar exam, not an engineer alone.

In all states you have to go to law school (or do an intern program, which is more trouble than its worth for 90% of people) Before you can take the bar exam. So you need to pick and apply to law schools, you need to take the LSAT test also....as long as you score well on the lsat and got good grades in college , finding a law school that will take you will not be an issue.....I don;t know why you say you cannot get into law school....I dropped out of highschool in 10th grade, spent several years with various addictions, and am just completing my ba to get in, and will have my choice of schools (albeit not harvard or yale, but beggars cannot be choosers)

If you mean the U.S. Patent "bar exam", you don't have to be a lawyer or go to law school to take it. You do need an engineering or science degree or convince someone at the patent office that you qualify under one of the exceptions. Its not clear to me that you qualify. With some hunting, you cand find the requirements at www.uspto.gov
