to fibonacci: my questions are not about if i have to work hard or not....
i know law is hard to study.Going to start my fifth year of law and it's harder every year but i knew how it was.
what i ask is more about EXPERIENCES do you prepare yourself through courses ...details like that! |

I wouldn't even put forth the investment unless it was a top 10 of a T1 school.
Debt to income ratios of anything but and you're screwing yourself.
Anyone telling you differently just never got in.
Study the past decade of US News and World Report rankings. There's a reason you see very little flux.
Why not move to the US region you want to practice in first?
You're crazy. Stay in Paris. |

I assume you're young.No offense, but FIFTH year? Jesus christ, I already smell a burnout. Take a year off, travel around the US.
Or... just stay in Paris. |

I know, I know. How much did she have to throw down to live "decently?" 10x the amount of a graduate in the humanities, making 3x more, enjoying her work -5x less? :p |
