The simple answer is no. South Carolina remains a closed minded, backwoods state with no intent to change in the near future. After all, "Junior" that did not do so well in college but "Diddy" paid to get him in a law school, would not have a job, if those nasty outsiders came in.

As far as I can tell, none. Of the states that do offer reciprocity, all of them require that the state in which the attorney sits offer reciprocity to them, as well. SD does not allow reciprocity with any state, so no state will allow reciprocity with SD.

Florida does not accept reciprocity with any other state. Too many retirees moving there from the North. New York does not accept reciprocity with Florida, though it does from numerous other states.
The Virginia bar has reciprocity with all states and the District of Columbia. That means that you do not have to retake the bar exam to practice law in Virginia.
If admitted to practice Law in Indiana is there reciprocity with Massachusetts?
None.
