in most places yes, you can wait a long time, you won't be signing shit so your admission is beside the point, that said the one time a partner does say "please send a quick letter to the judge or some shit" and you get to respond "OK, but I can't put 'attorney for x' on the signature line because I'm not admitted" and he looks at you like you're a drooling retard you'll wish you'd done it quicker

Almost all my peers in law school applied while still in school, and were done with C&F before they got bar results in October. Thus, they were admitted as soon as they got bar results. I, however, waited until around the beginning of September, didn't get approved until early January. It turned out to be the sweet spot, because I was only delayed a couple of months, it didn't change anything about my job, but it delayed my CLE requirements for a full year.
