Odds of getting out of jury duty?

[XXXNoahXXX]

At least in MA there is a section where you can defer to a later date up to a year later. Just do that, buys you a year, deal with it later....I'm tentatively scheduled for jury duty In June 2008. If it was going to only be 1-2 days, I'd actually like to sit on a jury if it was a close case. (but I'm a law student)
