You have to go to law school to become a lawyer.

Warning! Jobs in the field of Law are drying up FAST!! This is NOT a good field to invest in! Many reasons. Main reason?.....We simply have WAY TOO MANY Lawyers - we have a GLUT of Attorneys.

So.....even IF you finish law school, you probably won't be able to find a job when you are done with your studies. Plus you'll owe approx $150,000 in debts.

The law schools know this, but they continue to churn out graduates anyway - they know the economy is SATURATED. Law students are easy money for law schools - very little investment.

Suggestion: Look into and consider the field of HEALTHCARE! <<< LOTS of jobs there! and scholarships!
