That being said, we really don't need more shitty attorneys in my profession. Link to comment
LegalSmash Posted August 28, 2009 Content Count: 2936 Joined: 02/04/08 Status: Offline Share Posted August 28, 2009 Let me elaborate on the path to attorney in the US. Currently, the path to law school in the US is as follows: A student must finish high school successfully and complete a 4 year bachelor's program at minimum, AND take the Law School Admissions Test, a pain in the ass exam that makes college juniors and seniors cry and get cold sweats. If you get into law school, you get to go through 3 years of mindfuck until you "get it", and after that, you have to take the bar exam, which is a lot like having your testicles put through a wheat thresher, slowly. AFTER that, you get to pay dues to the bar for the privilege to practice, and hope the economy has not imploded on your career and aspirations... Link to comment

You also have to have a laundry list of stuff like famous summer camps run by the colleges themselves. You need to also have at least a 2200/2400 on the SATs, and throw in a good application and you get into UCLA. Link to comment
