Was law school worth it for you? [SERIOUS]
Poast new message in this thread
Date: September 27th, 2014 5:13 PM Author: Olive Crackhouse I'm not asking whether you like/liked being in biglaw (of course you don't/didn't) or regret taking on debt (of course you do -- significant debt can be soul-crushing and affects almost every aspect of your life).
I'm also not asking about the value of law school in the context of trying to get a job practicing law -- I know that even students at "good" schools can have real trouble finding well-paying legal work after graduation.
Here's what I'm asking:
Was your law school experience (the classes, the assignments, the friendships you made) enjoyable and valuable in and of itself? I mean the classes and assignments, the clinics/programs, the summer gigs you did, the social atmosphere, the relationships with professors and the professional network you built.
Background: I'm planning to send out LS apps soon (ONLY to HYSCCNP) but not planning to go to LS unless I get huge $$$ from one of them (or get into H/S with at least some $, or get into Y). I'm 150% sold on the notion that from a getting-a-job-and-being-financially-secure perspective, a JD is not the best option and I should instead figure out something else to do with my life and/or try for an MBA. But I took the LSAT, have a very good score, and have LS recs already -- so the personal statements are all I have left to do. I have fee waivers to CCNP, so I'd only have to pay for the HYS apps. It's early in the cycle, which increases my chances of getting into a good school. My plan is to get into that school, defer for 1 or 2 years, get experience in an industry more interesting than biglaw, and then do a JD/MBA at that school without having to revisit the law school application process in the future.
So I'm really asking whether I should: (a) apply now and keep a T7+$$$ acceptance letter with deferred matriculation on the shelf (to tack onto an MBA in the future); or (b) not bother to secure acceptance to a T7 school at all, and just focus on career and possible MBA down the road.
It comes down to whether LS is enjoyable/valuable in and of itself, since I would only be doing the JD on top of the MBA for the LS experience. I'd take the bar, but I wouldn't plan on practicing, certainly not in biglaw. |

LAW SCHOOL WAS WONDERFUL. LONG-WINDED, MEANDERING CONVERSATIONS WITH MY FELLOW LAW STUDENTS ABOUT INTELLECTUAL TOPICS THAT NO PRACTICAL HUMAN BEING GIVES TWO SHITS ABOUT WERE FASCINATING TO ME. AFTER GRADUATION, HOWEVER, I REALIZED THAT THESE CONVERSATIONS DID NOT IMPRESS AND, IN FACT, ANNOYED THE PEOPLE WHO PAID ME THE SALARY THAT I USE TO PAY DOWN MY LOANS.
YADA YADA YADA.

I fall into neither of these two groups so my law school social life was hell. I made no friends in law school that I still keep in touch with. I was alone and depressed most of the time. |

Date: September 27th, 2014 5:27 PM Author: Olive Crackhouse That's my nagging feeling -- which leads me to ask myself these important questions (which I don't know the answers to):
If I can get into a good B-school, then what will law school and taking the bar really do for me? If I don't want to practice law, then why bother? If it's just that I'm interested in studying something in addition to business the next time I'm in school, then I may as well consider taking one or two classes at the law school (or in any other graduate school at that university) while I'm doing my MBA, rather than doing a dual degree. |

That "well that was a waste" feeling isn't so awesome -- but perhaps it's better to just move on from the LS idea, rather than letting guilt over the sunk costs manipulate me into sinking more time/money into something that I don't even want for any practical reason.

Date: September 27th, 2014 5:55 PM Author: Olive Crackhouse Another huge mark in the CON column (found by searching JD/MBA in the XO search):
A joint degree is going to be a pain in the ass because you won't be with either class for the full program in succession. You'll be a social pariah like an EMBA azn prop trader or a know-it-all foreign LLM. Just do best 2 years of your life MBA. http://www.xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=2654549&mc=45&forum_id=2#26193007
At this point I can barely remember my serious justifications (if there were any) for wanting to send out the LS apps. Fuck...you guys are good. Glad I didn't make an account on TLS to ask them this question -- they would have said nonsensical shit.
I really think that despite the numerous, serious downsides of this chatweetblog, it has been good for one thing -- it's kept me (and others like me) from fooling ourselves into getting a JD. |

Date: September 27th, 2014 5:55 PM Author: Filthy piazza "Was your law school experience (the classes, the assignments, the friendships you made) enjoyable and valuable in and of itself?"
LOL, of course not. This is a trade school. It exists for one and ONLY one reason: to prepare you to be a lawyer. That is it. The assignments, subject matter, grading and even friendships all exist solely to advance that purpose. You don't go to law school to "learn to think differently" or "to explore another career." You go to be a lawyer. If you're not sure you're interested in that, then figure that out BEFORE applying.
And yes, I went to a T6 school. For crappier schools it gets even worse. For real TTTs it is 3 years of bar prep. |
|
Date: September 27th, 2014 6:08 PM Author: Olive Crackhouse I'm 99% sure I do not want to be a lawyer. There are a few policy areas I'm interested in that perhaps I'd have a better understanding of with a legal education, but you know what? I don't need a JD to learn more about them or understand the legal issues at play -- I can learn on my own, or if I am SO desperate to learn about them in a classroom setting, I can take the one or two LS classes that best deal with those issues by cross-registering/auditing while in B-school (if it REALLY means that much to me).
And as I think more and reread my original post, there's nothing to be gained from a JD in terms of enjoyment, usefulness and practicality that can't be gained from B-school (which I would enjoy more and which I would find more useful anyway -- since a B school curriculum and network is what I'm actually interested in). |
|
Date: September 27th, 2014 7:10 PM Author: Filthy piazza "I'm 99% sure I do not want to be a lawyer."
So then don't go to law school. As for the rest, yeah, if you want a basic understanding of the legal system then a few related classes will get you there. |

Date: September 27th, 2014 6:11 PM Author: Olive Crackhouse I'm starting to figure that out. I was a UG poli-sci shithead (thankfully, with a marginally more useful second major), and there is just no reason that I would want to be with those types again...all hot air, no skills or talent or creativity, and usually, not that much intelligence. Lots of navel-gazing, slightly-to-the-right-of-the-bell-curve types with a penchant for "analyzing" and "criticizing" things that they don't know that much about, writing with too many words, rarely adding value in the classroom or elsewhere, and never really creating anything novel and interesting in the world (especially not anything profitable).
I should just focus on building my career and practical skills in the short and medium term, with an eye on B school in the future. Maybe I'll start exploring the GMAT. |

Date: September 29th, 2014 11:47 PM Author: histrionic maroon indian lodge weed whacker Viewing it solely as an academic expierience, I would rank it significantly lower than UG. Perhaps 25% of the classes I took were interesting or challenging in a satisfying way. I did fairly well on exams but felt like I got very little out of most of the classes. Often the class experience felt like a tedious high school exercise, usually because the underlying material just wasn't sufficiently thought provoking or challenging to warrant in class discussion. Skimming a few volumes of a flagship joirnal will give you a sense of what to expect from law school from an intellectual standpoint: mostly obvious observations and bullshit, but there are a few bright spots here and there.
That said, definitely worth it for me. At this point, a good 40% of my work is really satisfying and quite intellectual. Great to get paid a living wage to think. |

Date: November 1st, 2016 10:51 AM Author: mentally impaired rigpig shrine With zero loans, I can say that it was well worth it. I like my practice and being a lawyer has allowed me to live a good life (I can't attribute any problems in my life to being a lawyer). I've got a good practice and I am generally pleased with my professional life.
1L year was a hot mess but was really fun. 2L year was tough because I went through bad break up with a girl that I loved and spent most of my time working at a firm and studying in school. 3L year was one of the worst years of my life, it felt like being in prison - bored, wanting to go back home to South Carolina, just marking time. By 3L year, I was sick of being broke, sick of going to make-work classes, the novelty of law school had worn off, and I felt pathetic being in my mid-20's and having to really worry about having enough money in my bank account to cover a bar tab. I had no intention of staying where my law school was (Philly), so I was not putting down any roots, and I was aware that I was probably not going to keep up with a lot of my friends in LS, so it was just kind of lonely & miserable. For me, my 3L year, I was drinking a lot, but not partying, which made a depressing situation even worse. I hated 3L year.
Also, first few years after law school were stressful but fun- much better than law school. After about 4/5 years of practice, life became very fun. |

Most law students have horrible personalities. Many law professors are the same.
I was one of those flame joint degree students. Spending time with the people in my other program and taking classes with those profs is probably the only reason I made it through.
Enjoy my work now, though. So there's that. |

But from a purely financial perspective it was the best decision I've ever made. I had a full tuition scholarship and have done biglaw for 8 years. My pre law school career paid just south of 100k and likely would've capped out at 150 or so.
I still don't encourage people to go to law school though |
