OK - we are close to wrapping this up.
Over these series of posts I have tried to demonstrate to anyone thinking of going to law school the following:
1. Becoming a lawyer requires a lot of work
2. Being a lawyer requires a lot of work
3. It is not something you should decide to do because "I don't know what I want to do with the rest of my life - might as well go to law school" or "what the hell, I'll take the LSAT for fun"
4. Being a lawyer will change you and the way you think
5. Law schools and TV shows lie to you about the reality of being a lawyer
and
5. If you do it right, law can be an incredibly rewarding career
I guess the overall theme of this thread is something you learn to do as a lawyer - think before you act and analyze the situation.
I will close this thread out tomorrow with the general advice I give to everyone thinking about becoming a lawyer.
