one of the most common threads i see is that law students uniformly believe that the glut of lawyers won’t affect them. The myths abound. … They will be at the top of their class and at least have a few job offers. They have great connections or networking that will lead to a job. They don’t need financial aid so they can afford to take one of the many open, low-paying public interest jobs. They have more looks/personality/drive/enthusiasm than their classmates, so they will be selected if interviewed. … They are pursuing jobs in tax, patent, or criminal law (or any other field of law that they think has more jobs), so they will find a job. They are going to a regional school outside of nyc, chicago, boston, l.a. Etc., where lawyers are still finding jobs. Their law school advertises 90%+ employment, so surely there are jobs. They will take anything, so surely they will find a job. They don’t want to practice law anyway, but the law degree will help them in another career. They believe that lawyers are respected professionals…
