pretty much. also, at least decent people skills. even though most of them are raging assholes at the office, they're at least competent handling clients, doing depos if lit, managing a team for corp, negotiating chain of command at the law firm, etc. most aspie biglaw associates completely fail to understand how this factors in.
the also billed substantive hours without a ton of shitpadding, shined on a few projects, and most likely had one or more existing partners take a liking to them beyond their work product for whatever reason.

1. Be white.
2. Don't be an aspie.
3. Be male.
You're about 75% of the way there just for this.

This may make sense if you're in line for a 1 m+ payday as an equity partner. But for a firm whose partners make 175-200k??

Wake up 6am, head to gym
Rage on weights, treadmill while watching CNBC
Home, shower, coffee, Armani
Newspaper on subway
Work at 9
Bengay under eyes to make self angry and motivated
Lotion between fingers to reduce friction while typing
Alpha lunch with fellow alpha potential client
Fly close to the sun to absorb its rays for energy
Reenter atmosphere
Bill, delegate, bill more
Empire build
Dinner at desk while crying quietly
Slap self for momentarily being a pussy
Reapply lotion, Bengay
Home at 11pm
Masturbate to Ronald Reagan's economic policies
Sleep
Repeat

Most impressive partner I've seen is generally in the office from 10-7, but is booked solid during that time; spends a fair amount of time outside the office networking and recruiting; is extremely good about filtering out non-material issues and facilitating deal progress; and seems to know a ton of bankers and accountants.
As far as I can tell, he's reasonably social, very very smart, perfectly focused and aims to work 60 hrs/week.
