[quote=Anonymous]I went to a "top" law school and there were way more people with job experience that people who went straight through. I was someone who went straight through and in retrospect I think it was a negative for me. I think a year or two (or more) of working is really good preparation for the career choices you will need to make pretty quickly in law school, and will also give you some of the professional soft skills you need not only for post-law school, but to succeed in the internships and clerkships you do during school. The most successful people from my law school program all worked for at least a year before entering the program. The ones who did best worked in fields like consulting, banking, or policy positions.
