"The Bad News Law Schools" (New York Times Op-Ed)

<p>I am a lawyer.</p>

<p>There is a vast over-supply of lawyers out there.</p>

<p>And has been for 30 years now.</p>

<p>Further, there are many problems with the profession.</p>

<p>Such as standard 60 hour work weeks, and few jobs after you hit about 32 years old.</p>

<p>Unless you can get into a top 10 law school, I would go a different route.</p>

<p>To me, a lot of kids wind up going to law school because they are liberal arts majors, and don’t know what else to do.</p>

<p>I would recommend that for most people, spending THREE YEARS in this endeavor, and spending all that money for tuition, not to mention foregoing the money you could have been earning on a job, is not a wise course of action.</p>
