[quote=Anonymous]Look for schools that have a joint degree program maybe MBA/JD or MPH/JD. You can do it in 4 years. The answer to the question is as others say a financial calculus. If you must take on a big amount of debt you need to consider your job prospects. Health care is a growing field that is not actually over saturated yet at the large firm level because it is highly specialized etc. You said she doesn't want that but walking in-house with nothing other than a law school degree is tough because you have no practical experience. She should consider trying for big firm practice for 3-5 years and then look to move to a client. Like others, I would not advise anyone to take on 250k of debt unless they were at a top school. If parents have money and are willing to pay or she can get scholarships to lesser schools then that should factor in. [/quote]
