[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the dcum consensus on the field? My niece is applying next year and I think it's a mistake, but I also feel as though it would be inappropriate to discourage her. [/quote] Worth it for a top-10 (some will argue top-14) degree. Otherwise, I would steer clear unless there is some form of guaranteed employment at the end of the road (e.g., dad runs a solo practice). Don't do it for the money either as biglaw is a crapshoot, even from top schools. If she has a year before she begins applying and she's set on it, encourage her to get her LSAT score as high as possible. Undergrad GPA and LSAT score are the sole factors law schools consider in admissions.[/quote]
