[quote=Anonymous]The people I know that were in law school after time in the workforce were usually at the top of the class. They were able to focus better than those of us who went straight in from college. It might be a bit difficult socially, especially if you are going to a school in a place where you don’t have a social circle. I would go for it. It sounds like you aren’t going into debt for the degree and that you are financially independent so you could take a job once you get out that interests you even if the pay is low. The reason why many here don’t recommend law school is because of the debt that many people take on. Many lawyers aren’t making the kind of money required to pay back those loans. Many of the jobs that do pay are difficult to break into (big law) and fairly miserable. I liked law school and I work for the feds now. I was lucky in the I went to a state school, graduated with little debt and had a job when I graduated. [/quote]
