<p>arege: I think taking on the loan is worth it if you are 100% sure that law is what you want to do, and you’re 100% positive you will work your butt off in law school. Sure, a very low percentage of law school grads find good positions in the workplace. But someone has to be in that low percentage, and the distribution isn’t random. Can you get into a top law school, and can you be at the top of your class in that law school? You have to be honest with yourself. By the time you’re getting ready to apply to law school, you should already have an idea of your academic strengths and work ethic. If you honestly believe you can be the best of the best in law school, then it’s absolutely worth the debt.</p>
