[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her plan isn’t awful but to make anywhere near that money she has to do biglaw and it probably follows she will hate biglaw. It’s not really for people who think about their desires and preferences. Your kid seems to think life cares about her wants - I’d fix that first. As a former biglaw senior associate who went in house, I know a lot of PhDs who did patent litigation. The issue is it’s really hard to get hours and most of them were pushed up and out. The only one who made partner was a Harvard PhD who got a JD simultaneously, not later. [b]It’s well known in biglaw PhDs can’t really hack the workload and speed.[/b] [/quote] LOL. Sounds like you couldn’t hack it either since you were up and out. [/quote] LOL no I definitely couldn’t. I’m really efficient and smart, and I don’t take shit. I left happily and make bank in one of those dream jobs people wax poetical about.[/quote]
