I don't know - I personally felt I learned a lot from studying for the bar. Sure, I don't remember most of the details - but I remember enough to have instincts and point myself in the right direction if I need to. And I definitely learned a lot more black letter law from studying for the bar than I did in law school. Frankly, I think I would have been well-served by having to study for the bar prior to law school.
