[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do your DD has an undergrad degree plus 4-5 year PHD and now wants to go to law school for 3 years? Plus three prob a gap year in there while she prepares? If it’s only fir the money “ heard she could make $500k” I would try to get her to reconsider. I’d only pursue this if she really wanted to be a patent lawyer. Be cause What happens if she’s still not fulfilled…. After 12 years of school?[/quote] Yeah, good question!! I can't really influence her, as she is an adult. If I could, she'd be an academic, but she's resisted that. She worked in a lab at her university for a year, and loved every second of it, but hated being so poorly paid. Now, she makes a decent living working in private industry, but nowhere near $500k. What are the skills/talents that make a good patent lawyer? [/quote]
