You mistake "smart" with "have good memory". Laweyrs are far more about knowing the law and finding the law to apply at given situation + some social skills rather than "smart". Obviously the good ones, as in any profession, will probably also be "smart", but that's just the top. > something has gone very bad somewhere in the education and certification pipeline. Yeah like the fact lawyers earn far more money than people responsible for teaching kids... teaching future generations should be at least as prestigious and well paid job
