Good Advice on Bad Advice

Listen Later

When you announce your law school plans, everyone you know will become a law school expert overnight. There’s something about applying to law school that makes everyone you know think you urgently need their advice . . . and much of it will be bad.

In this episode, Jelena and Branden cover several pieces of bad advice almost everyone receives when considering law school, and explain why you shouldn’t take these “nuggets of wisdom” seriously.

In this episode:

  1. Are all lawyers miserable?
  2. Can you make money as a lawyer without being evil?
  3. If you love to argue, should you go to law school?
  4. Should you go to a lower-ranking law school with a plan to transfer into a T14?
  5. And, speaking of the T14, are there really only 14 law schools that are worth attending?
  6. Are morally flexible people the best lawyers?
  7. Will becoming a lawyer make you boring, conventional, and unlikable?
  8. Are you too young/old/weird/different for law school?
