i am currently in a canadian law school and i know how easy it is to get caught up in the whole "must work at biglaw or you're a failure".

Do whatever you want. If you want to know the law because you're marketable for a job after, then forget a lower tier school.

If you want to know the law because you just want to know to enhance your business acumen, then take the ride.

I don't go to class, i get a summary and pore over that the month before the exam, and i get a smattering of As and Bs. Thats enough for many biglaw jobs in Canada if you interview well and have a pimped out resume.

so apply that to the US market if you can.
