I have no “reason” to pay for any degree. I have no financial need to work ever in life. That being said, my reasoning for wanting to go to law school (although entirely irrelevant to the question I asked) is because that has been the plan from the start. My research work for my MA/PhD in Performance Studies was directly-related to preparation for law school and a legal career. It isn’t as though it is an afterthought or just something else to mark off a checklist. That path was curated specifically with my end goal in mind.

So this isn’t a question about whether or not I should go to law school. I’m going. And where ever I go, the cost will not even be a consideration. I was simply asking for input as to whether or not I should bother applying to the top schools or not waste the time with it.
