我現在突發奇想如果board說我沒有PCLL就是不能滿足education requirement for admission,假設duration和substantive都滿足的話。以下是摘錄。
我相信,法律的原意是如果您在國家A接受教育,那麽你要滿足國家A的education requirement for admission。但是,如果我在國家A接受教育,我不滿足國家A的要求,但滿足國家B的education requirement for admission。這樣argue靠譜嗎。文字沒要求接受教育與能admission的是同一個地方啊。
a) General. An applicant who has studied in a foreign country may qualify to take the New York State bar examination by submitting to the New York State Board of Law Examiners satisfactory proof of the legal education required by this section.
(b) Legal education. The applicant must satisfy the educational requirements of either paragraph (1) or (2) of this subdivision.
(1) The applicant shall show fulfillment of the educational requirements for admission to the practice of law in a country other than the United States by successful completion of a period of law study in a law school or schools each of which, throughout the period of the applicant's study therein, was approved by the government or an authorized accrediting body in such country, or of a political subdivision thereof, to award a first degree in law, and satisfaction of the following requirements:
(i)(a) Durational requirements. The program and course of law study successfully completed by the applicant was substantially equivalent in duration to the legal education provided by an American Bar Association approved law school in the United States, and in substantial compliance with the instructional and academic calendar requirements of section 520.3(c)(1)(i) and (ii) and (d)(1) of this Part; and
(b) Substantive requirements. Such other country is one whose jurisprudence is based upon the principles of English Common Law, and that the program and course of law study successfully completed by the applicant were the substantial equivalent of the legal education provided by an American Bar Association approved law school in the United States.

Is the JD Programme a doctoral or a master's degree?
The JD Programme is formally classified as a taught master's degree programme and it is not customary for JD graduates to use the title “Doctor”

Can I use the title “Dr” with a Juris Doctor degree?
It is not customary for holders of the Juris Doctor degree to use the title “Dr” before their names. The JD is not a doctorate of philosophy degree commonly known as a PhD. The JD is therefore NOT equivalent to a PhD.
在美国……应该是博士?因为ABA那封信?但是,那封信仅仅说,为了“教育招聘的目的”,JD等于PhD,不能无限扩大到“JD都等于PhD”,我记得在其他目的下,即使是美国本土,JD也不是博士,而且这个出处可比ABA权威

Structure of the U.S. Education System:
First-Professional Degrees
First-professional degrees represent a category of qualifications in professional subject areas that require students to have previously completed specified undergraduate coursework and/or degrees before enrolling. They are considered graduate-level programs in the U.S. system because the follow prior undergraduate studies, but they are in fact first degrees in these professional subjects. Holders of first-professional degrees are considered to have an entry-level qualification and may undertake graduate study in these professional fields following the award of the first-professional degree. Several of these degrees use the term “doctor” in the title, but these degrees do not contain an independent research component or require a dissertation (thesis) and should not be confused with PhD degrees or other research doctorates.
A first-professional degree is an award that requires completion of a program that meets all of the following criteria: (1) completion of the academic requirements to begin practice in the profession; (2) at least 2 years of college work prior to entering the program; and (3) a total of at least 6 academic years of college work to complete the degree program, including prior required college work plus the length of the professional program itself.
All first-professional degree programs are closely regulated by recognized professional and specialized accrediting agencies. See Accreditation and Quality Assurance.
FIRST-PROFESSIONAL DEGREE TITLES
First-professional degrees may be awarded in the following 10 fields:
Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C. or D.C.M.)
Doctor of Dental Science (D.D.S.) or Doctor of Dental Medicine (D.M.D.)
