Going to law school by default is always a bad idea and an even worse idea in this job market. Enjoy your freedom and find something interesting to do.

Date: October 2nd, 2014 9:35 AM Author: rusted stead coldplay fan There are way too many unhappy lawyers who went to law school because they couldn't figure out what else to do and end up hating it. You need to figure out whether you want to be a lawyer, and fast. A lifetime is a long ass time to spend in a career you hate and that probably requires ~12 hours a day 5 or 6 days a week.

Date: October 2nd, 2014 9:43 AM Author: Obsidian submissive meetinghouse community account Get a job with your state or U.S. senator or rep. That will not only involve policy, but it will also introduce you (somewhat) to what lawyers do. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2689898&forum_id=2#26442208) |

Date: October 2nd, 2014 9:44 AM Author: rusted stead coldplay fan When I was considering law school, lo these ten years ago, I got a book about careers in the law. That was helpful. Some people find a laywer to shadow during their day. Another litmus test I remember is whether you can read a bunch of long NYT / WSJ articles about legal issues or court cases and maintain a reasonably high level of interest.

Date: October 2nd, 2014 9:38 AM Author: rusted stead coldplay fan BTW, if you like useless humanities, have you considered teaching that at the high school level (preferably at a school where the students are relatively intelligent)? This has turned out well for a number of people I know. Obviously you won't be rich, but there is a hell of a lot more to life than that.
