Thanks for input. I'll have to do more homework. I know there are some aspects of criminal law that I wouldn't like ("Cold Case" holds my interest but the injustice of the crime keeps bothering me quite a while after; I really like how FBI cases are handled on "Numbers" but I'm not meant to be a mathmetician- though accounting has entered my thought but would be boring.) I'd have to find out all the aspects - wouldn't want to represent a serial killer, for instance.

BTW LUconn, I'm a Husky fan but need to work on the rabid part; my husband would qualify-had to remind him not to wake kids with reactions to game tonight. UCONN losing to Wash. then went into overtime (82pts....) onto a 98-92 win!!!!
PS He has a friend that started in real estate; she's selling our condo. He said ya have to work butt off for broker for 5 yrs.... :?

If you are not sure whether law school is for you, perhaps it may not be. It will require a ton of time invested in not only getting your degree but also interning in order to get licensed to practice. My wife has also given it a great deal of thought but chose not to in order to begin to develop some entrepreneurial concepts. But if you are willing to make the time sacrifices, law certainly has its benefits. Just keep in mind that lawyers are like doctors, they don't make a penny unless they are working.
