[quote=Anonymous]I attended a T20 for free and with a well-paying job essentially guaranteed at the end, and I'm still wondering whether it was worth the lost income during those three years. The amount of debt most of my classmates took on terrifies me, and many remain unemployed or under-employed (class of 2010). I would not advise anyone to attend law school (or any other graduate program) without a very specific and realistic plan for what they will do afterwards and what the costs will be. "I'll work for a big firm to pay off my debt" is not a realistic plan these days, nor would I consider it specific. The miserable lawyers tend to be the ones who had no idea what their jobs would actually involve and went to law school because they had nothing else lined up; being chained to a job by debt also ups the misery factor.[/quote]
