Is American Law degree JD helpful for someone who wants to live in Europe?
Find answers to your legal question.

I am determined to go back to Europe and live rhe rest of my life there. Got a free ride in a 4th tier american law school (very small local shitty school). Currently 2L, should I continue with legal career which I really hate just because I got free ride in a fourth tier toilet? Or can my degree have any value in europe?
My grades are very mediocre, all Cs ( with exclusion of non-curved courses).

Jobs in the field of Law are drying up.

We simply have WAY TOO MANY Lawyers/Attorneys for the market/economy.

Suggestion: Consider and look into the field of HEALTHCARE! <this is where the jobs are! in the USA and Europe. also scholarships!
