spelling and grammar have been covered pretty well.....................
excel in high school in all your classes focusing on whatever is required to get into your college of choice. your counselor at school can help you with that.

here is a web-site for more info about a career as an attorney:
U.S. Department of Labor
Bureau of Labor Statistics
Occupational Outlook Handbook, 2008-09 Edition
http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos053.htm
at this site you will find:
the training and education needed
earnings
expected job prospects
what workers do on the job
working conditions

Well, a class in grammar and traditional spelling would help a lot. After that, get a good college education - almost any degree will do, but most folks suggest leaning toward a business or liberal arts degree. Once you have your bachelors, then you get a law degree and once you have that, you need to pass the bar exam.

The better the school, the better the job after law school. If you want to go to a top law school, expect to need at least a 3.6 or higher to get accepted.

Definitely stop using the "text talk". It makes you look lazy and uneducated.

Get good grades, go to college and go to law school. It is lots of hard work but worth it in the long run.
