Please please please don't go to law school. I graduated from a T14 in 2012, probably the worst possible year to earn a JD since jurisprudence became a societal concept. I have $200,000+ in student loan debt and absolutely nothing to show for it. It's my biggest regret, and it's a mistake I'll be paying for quite literally for the rest of my life.
Basically in law school, your future is determined solely by your first year grades. After that, you go to a job fair in the summer where a firm will recruit you, or they won't. If they do, you'll have a very well paying but grueling job guaranteed after you graduate. If they don't, good luck finding a job for the remaining two years because your school will absolutely stop giving a shit about you once they realize you'll be too broke to give them alumni money.
I had A's in every subject, one B and one C+ in Civil Procedure II. That dragged my GPA down for the all important summer job fair, and even though my grades were great after that, it didn't matter. I spent three years after I graduated unemployed, doing temp lawyer work (google "document review" to get a glimpse at your potential future if you don't land a summer associateship) to pay the bills until I made a miraculous escape into the media business.
Unless you have family connections, are already rich, or can get a free ride, please don't go to law school.
