Is becoming a lawyer a good career choice?

I'm really interested in becoming a lawyer but I'm not sure if its a good career choice. I have heard that there are to many individuals that are going to college for this particular profession and demand is low which makes it an incredibly competitive job. So I'm wondering if there are any lawyers/attorneys that can answer this question. Even if you are not familiar with this career it would be awesome if you could share your opinion. (Personally i think i would make a good lawyer because i recently took part in a 2 week long mock trial as a defense attorney and the jury found the defendant completely innocent.)


    




Slap me & call me silly
well I'm in the same situation. I will be graduating with my BA this year and I am trying to figure out what will be my next school goal. Just know that law school is very very expensive. and you have to ask yourself do you want to really pay back that much in loans....However, where there is a will there is an way. So if you have your mind set for it, don let nothing hold you back. If you work hard at something it will work out for you.

If I dont go to law school I will pursue my PH.D in Psychology....I got to make up my mind tho....
