Default Official Law School Sucks Thread

Dear 2+2:

Don't go to law school. If you go to a really good school and/or get good grades you will get a job that pays alot. You will be miserable at that job but you will not be able to quit because you will be heavily in debt.

If you miss out on BIGLAW you may do something interesting but you will be broke. More likely you will do something excruciatingly boring and still be broke.

And the worst part, you actually have to spend three years of your life in law school. Your classmates will suck- they will talk about nothing other than what job they want/got and classes they are in. Your classes will suck too. Remember that "interesting" undergrad course you took in Con Law? Yeah, get ready for Civil Procedure.

People told me not to do it, but I didn't listen (they make 160k right out of school, how bad can it be?) Do yourself a favor- unless you genuinely love reading and writing for most of the day, don't go.
