What's the fastest & cheapest online law school degree (JD) in the US?

> The online school would let me take the Bar, so it's not relevant to note that you need to be a licensed attorney

I don't believe that's correct

there isn't one Bar that applies to all states                
just because you pass the California bar doesn't mean you can offer legal advice to people in New York                  
passing the California bar does not mean you are licensed to practice law in New York                    
laws are actually different in different states

100% Facts.

To practice law in NY, you need to practice the NY Bar Exam AND meet additional requirements the state has developed. NY doesn't have reciprocity with other states so you can't just practice here because you're licensed in another state. 

You MUST be a licensed attorney to practice law in NY. Just taking the Bar Exam does not make you an attorney. Not in NY at least.
