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!

The law schools know this, yet they continue to churn out law graduates - the law schools know the market/economy is SATURATED. But law students are easy money for law schools - they have to make very little investment in a law student.

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

Suggestion: Consider and look into the field of HEALTHCARE!< this is where the jobs are! and scholarships!

Good luck.
