I don't think this follows. No one is going to check whether you passed preschool before interviewing for a job at a law firm. Presumably, someone in the process is going to check whether you passed the bar before you have a sit-down with the CEO. I'm guessing that for anyone who sets foot in an interview for a law firm, the interviewer expects he or she to have passed. This expectation comes from the fact that someone or something filters out the non-passers ahead of time. There is no expectation regarding kindergarten; they are completely indifferent towards it.

Most large firms draw their entry-level associates from their pool of summer interns, which they hire two years before they graduate law school and take the bar exam. They also usually give people a mulligan on failing the bar exam the first time, so people might work somewhere for 6+ months before passing the bar.
