If You're Thinking About Becoming A Lawyer, Buy This Book,
By Aaron Jordan (Salt Lake City, Utah) - See all my reviews
This review is from: So You Want to Be a Lawyer (Paperback)
This book has just about everything you need to know about what to expect in law school, what the job market is like, what you need to do to get accepted to the school of your choice, etc. The approach of this book is very straightforward, and it helps dispel some of the myths surrounding the legal profession. Many lawyers, looking back, wish they had never chosen law as a career. If you're thinking about law but aren't sure yet, don't jump into something that you might not be able to get out of. Read this book. It will give you a realistic understanding of law school and the legal profession.
