I see from your statement, that if you did graduate college, it was

in
the hard science disciplines.




I see you're mistaken. I was a double major... biology and English
lit.
The
former is one of the requirements for being a patent attorney.

I also see that you have no logical argument, thus your pathetic
attempt
to
put me down.

Man up Bill.





You said nothing about degrees. So a patent attorney needs only a
biology
degree?





You need to have a bs in order to become a patent agent. Biology
qualifies.
There are very specific requirements. I also have a JD/MBA also if that
makes you feel better. Thus, I'm a patent attorney, not just an agent.
The
pass rate for the exam is about 40%.

Here's a link that'll boil it down for you in steps even you can
comprehend..

I was category A with a bio degree.

Impressive! And you do *what* now?


Thanks (at face value). I own a small business. Bascially, I sell
high-end
designer clothes (new and used) to US and foreign customers. I bet *that*
sounds boring, but it isn't at all.




So the patent attorney gig didn't work out?

No, at least not emotionally anyway. Big companies tend to grind down
everyone who works there, and that ended up spilling over to my consulting.


Must be a man's job if you let emotions get in the way of success.
