[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some important information you're leaving out OP - (1) Did you like accounting? (2) What "fascinates" you about the law and what do you think you'd want to do in the legal field?[/quote] Yes, this is key. I know many, many lawyers who have accounting degrees and used to work in accounting. Some have gone on to do tax law because they liked accounting and enjoy this sort of legal work. I know a few who hated accounting and wanted to escape that -- they are criminal lawyers, transactional lawyers, labor lawyers, etc. How much do you know about being a lawyer? Have you researched the types of careers available to someone with a legal degree? Do you have an area you're passionate about? What about debt? Are you in a position to do law school debt free or with minimal student loans, or will you need to take out 200k? This will influence the choices you make about jobs after law school.[/quote]
