请问大侠们，

如果我有香港JD（两年的），但是我没有读PCLL。我之后去了美国读LLM。 这样香港JD+美国LLM能在加州考Bar吗？ 我把我现在收集的一些信息放在下面方便讨论。

Guidelines for Applicants with a Foreign Law Degree

A general applicant who has a first degree in law from a law school located in a foreign state or country must:

1. Obtain from a credential evaluation service approved by the Committee of Bar Examiners a certificate that the applicant’s first degree in law is substantially equivalent to a Juris Doctor degree awarded by a law school approved by the American Bar Association or accredited by the Committee or。 虽然都是学的Common Law，但是HK JD只有两年。这样满足substantially equivalent条件吗？

2. Obtain from a credential evaluation service approved by the committee a certificate that the applicant’s first degree in law meets the educational requirements for admission to practice law in the foreign state or country in which it was obtained.
HKJD 应该不算完全满足了education requirements 在香港做律师。HKJD + PCLL 应该是能够满足的。但是如果没有PCLL，加州会认为只有HKJD满足教育条件吗？

谢谢大家。

另外，我仔细研究过了。 HKJD（无PCLL）+美国LLM 应该是可以满足NY Bar 的条件。欢迎讨论。

可以的，一般情况下NY bar和CA bar都可以考。可能NY对学校有一些限制，具体要求你去官网查。
