<p>“binge-watching Suits”: That is not a reason to consider law school.</p>
<p>“I have always been fascinated with the law”: In what ways? If so, why haven’t you done anything with law yet? I’m a lawyer and am not fascinated by the law at all, but I have done fine with it as a career.</p>
<p>“the financial reward can be fantastic”: It can for some, but not really for most.</p>
<p>“I am the type of person to not give up until I am right and my point has been made”: What does that have to do with the law? Wouldn’t that skill be valid in a lot of fields?
