[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd say an academic masters is higher than a JD. If you have an English MA, say, you have more extensive knowledge. A JD is just the basic law degree.[/quote] Law School is 3 years. At UVA a maters in english takes 3 semesters. "number of students, the most desirable plan is a rigorous course of study at the MA level. The MA may be completed in three full semesters, though students opting to write an MA thesis often take a fourth semester" http://www.engl.virginia.edu/graduate [/quote] Not sure what your point is. Law school has no prereqs, so the first year is just bringing people up to speed.[/quote] Don't you need a bachelors to get into law school? [/quote]
