<p>Do educate yourself about the current conditions of the legal profession. There are a lot of highly qualified, experienced lawyers out of work right now who are going to be hired quite often before the new grads, no matter where those new grads went to law school. I don’t know you from Adam but I know that one must be cautious about assuming the kind of debt you will assume for law school and so I’m urging you to educate yourself about the current state of the profession. Read trade news, talk to partners, talk to new grads. Don’t believe the hype coming out of law schools; they are in part responsible for over-producing the new grads who are both victims of and contributors to this mess. I too like philosophy and hope you do well. Do take some advanced symbolic logic courses.</p>
