[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would anyone want to skip college just so they can start working sooner?[/quote] The money. 2-3 years if lost income plus $$$ tuition fees. [/quote] He has the rest of his life to make money. I'm in biglaw and like my job, but under no circumstances would I encourage anyone to skip college just to save a couple hundred grand and become a lawyer faster. College is great. I also agree with others that biglaw firms in general aren't going to be enthused about hiring someone who's barely legal to drink. Even financially, it's probably worth it to [b]go to college, get into a T14 law school, go to biglaw, pay off your loans, and then do whatever you want vs skipping college and getting a less remunerative job out of law school[/b].[/quote] +1. There is no shortcut, nor does there need to be. OP, understand that there is a wide variety in types of practice and levels of earnings.[/quote]
