<p>Your professors know exactly zero about law school; they simply have the required contempt for anyone(lawyers included) who isn’t a professor at a major university. So if you want to attend law school, do your cost/benefit analysis and if you decide it’s worth applying, then apply. Do not let a college professor persuade you-either way-whether you ought to apply. As cartera phrased it, there are a lot of reasons not to apply to law school, but being an English major is not one of them.<br>
After you’ve been accepted, you’ll have to do the cost/benefit analysis again based on where you were accepted, but that’s months in the future.</p>
