[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ABA has noted that the JD and PhD are equivalent levels of education. https://www.americanbar.org/content/dam/aba/publications/misc/legal_education/Standards/2013_2014_council_statements.authcheckdam.pdf So why do political science departments consider one path of study (the PhD) more qualified than another (the JD)? The study of law should provide an adequate knowledge about American government, at the very least. In fact, I feel that with the study of law, one might even have a better understanding of government than in any other field, since American government is primarily based on the supreme law of the land, the United States Constitution.[/quote] political science is heavy into numbers and math. Lawyers don't do those.[/quote] Speak for yourself. -- a tax attorney[/quote]
