Graduate School Law School

<p>Anyone taken one of these programs? They have always interested me, but I am just not sure where to start. Do I aim for the better law school or the better business school? If anyone has advice from one of these programs please share.</p>

<p>Also, lets say when I finally receive my BA, I have 4 different college transcripts. Is it absolutely necessary to send all 4, or could I get away with not sending one transcript that had only 1 class on it? I feel like I could have easily not sent that transcript for my Undergraduate Transfer Applications, but I did anyways, has anyone here not sent a transcript?</p>

<p>I’ve heard that you have to send EVERYTHING.</p>

<p>if you don’t send everything, and you are later (even much later) found out, it would be very good grounds for expulsion or disbarrment. </p>

<p>no matter how bad the grade was in the college class, the consequences of lying about it would be worse.</p>

<p>I had two roommates who went the JD/MBA route. One of them applied to business school first (and went to Haas at Berkeley), and then applied to law schools (and ended up attending U.C. Davis). The other applied to both at the same time, and got both degrees from Berkeley. </p>

<p>I started law school thinking I might apply to business school while I was there. My first year of law school weakened my appetite for school. </p>

<p>At that point in your career, the opportunity cost of spending another year in school is quite high. The prospects that it will pay off financially are iffy. Some people think it works hurts candidates in the marketplace: few jobs really use both degrees, and prospective employers may look on such candidates are being less committed to a single profession.</p>
