Should I look into law school?

I have law school classmates who didn’t like law practice and then went to medical school and became medical doctors. Different things for different people.

Law has a lot of introverts in it. I would say that lawyers are disproportionately creative introverts. (At a former job, all lawyers had to take personality tests and we were all off-the-charts high on being creative and a few other things; I forget what the other things were.)

For international law, social service, public policy: go to a highly-ranked law school and don’t expect to be paid well.
