Dad is trying to persuade me to go to law school?

<p>OP doesn’t want to go to law school, and the person giving him advice is not a lawyer and has never been to law school. Seems pretty clear OP ought to stay far, far away from law school.
And can’t agree with NY’s advice; this isn’t either or. If you’re unemployed with a BA, it’s not a good idea to take on three years of debt-to the tune of $150K±in the hopes that maybe you’ll get a job. This week USNWR released its “best” law schools; several of the T-14 had employment rates at graduation in the 70 percentile, at least one in the
60s. And take a look for today’s third tier reality for Prof Campos’ take on the debt load taken on by many students.
If you’re fired up to be a lawyer and get into T-14, maybe it’s worth the risk. But OP doesn’t want to be a lawyer. No way someone like that should roll the dice on law school.</p>
