Should You Go to Law School?

[@TheAustinBeaumont]

So, to summarize, go to law school if you want to be a lawyer, but if you don't want to be a lawyer, don't go to law school. Well stated, counselor.

[@1300mer]

Austin Beaumont so then why do people go to law school who don't plan to be a lawyer? What is their end goal?

[@TheAustinBeaumont]

My comment was more an observation on the banality of her thesis. E.g., if you want to be a civil engineer, go to civil engineering school, but if you don't, then don't. It's about the most asinine thing to say. From my experience in law school, 98% of people were there to be lawyers. The other 2% were bored housewives or guys who had an awesome 6 years at the frat in undergrad and wanted another 3 years to party.

[@lynnea4782]

It's clearly not that obvious, because some people (even in the comments below) disagree with me.

[@saralovesyoux3]

Austin Beaumont actually many people go to law school for other reasons than being a lawyer. It’s just her advice..

[@mafaldapratasfernandes1719]

​@@TheAustinBeaumont Actually many people go to law school and they want to be in other professions, somewhat adjacent, but in which many people have a law degree. That triggers people into thinking they should get a law degree if they want to be successful in those professions. Examples: politics, lobbying, public/government administration, private administration jobs, non-profit/foundation work, public service work, etc.

[@alexia-eo4oq]

"don't go to law school if you don't want to be a lawyer" i'm in law school and that's probably the dumbest shit I've ever heard. Lots of careers other than lawyer need a legal training (judges, notary, baillif, bank professions....) So you can totally go to law school even if you don't want to be a lawyer, as you study you're gonna learn a lot of things and your career goal might even change in the end ! I am honestly surprised that a law student would advise not to go to law school unless you want to be a lawyer.

[@lynnea4782]

Oh. Then, Aakanksha sorry. I don't think I can guide you. Your reply takes me back to my past. I wanted very very badly to become a researcher in any fields of bio after my 12 grade. But somehow I ended up choosing Law. I hated my freshman year but as days passed by I started noticing that I'm really liking law. Everything about law has fascinated me. (Of course you won't like every single subject though. LOL). Right now I enjoy being here. And there has never been a single day I regretted my decision. Best thing is you can become a Researcher in Law too. (Added bonus, right?). I don't want my decision to influence yours. But if ur current life is not making you happier then it's time for a shift. Whatever you do, just wait until graduation. Then change your track. Good Luck!!

[@AbigailMarie]

What did you major in before going to law school? I am a high school senior and I would love to be a lawyer but I'm not sure what to major in for my bachelors. The university I plan to attend doesn't recommend majoring in pre law so the only offer a pre law program so I have to pick a major

[@quinneaton4466]

Doesn't really matter. If you're deadset on law, studies show that STEM fields do the best on the LSAT, fields like criminal justice and political science (and prelaw) do the worst. But really, do what you are interested in. Most employers will like seeing you have education in some interesting field unrelated to law.

[@quinneaton4466]

English would be a good undergrad degree for law school. Just make sure you take a good number of technical writing/composition-type classes (i.e. if you simply study literature, especially fictional literature, that will not really be helpful to you at all). Because, as you will someday find out, being a lawyer means you WRITE A LOT. I'd say at least a full half of every single day of my job is purely spent writing stuff (whether it be complaints, answers, motions, discovery, briefs, or even just emails).

[@nocturne2029]

Do something you’re interested in and could live with doing as a job of law school doesn’t go as planned (also a lot of law schools see Pre-law as being “easy” so I wouldn’t recommend that)

Dead Otter Walking honey I’m in my second year of my undergrad and just changed majors, and while I’m fairly sure I want to be a corporate lawyer, that might change. Don’t feel bad about being unsure: there are so many people who have no idea what they want to do well into their adult/professional life. Don’t pressure yourself! Also, if you do go to law school, that will help you decide which areas of the law you’re interested in. You do NOT need to have everything worked out right now.

[@IZotit]

Thank you for sharing your experiences!!! Xox keep kicking butt, but... I have a question, will pursuing a law degree help in wanting to work in the international community aka EU, NATO, representing your nation? Thank you!

[@SimplyAvalon]

Absolutely! However that is not the only avenue to do so. Many jobs in the international community specifically in the UN and NATO are based on a national quota meaning at certain times they would not need to hire you (depending on the country that you are from meaning that they are also very competitive). You could also work in the private sector for many businesses now a days because of globalization are multinational. A business degree could be just as helpful for many jobs where you'd be able to work in the international community. I guess it totally depends on whether you'd like to be on the law side of it or not since those jobs don't have to be totally related to law although it's certainly a plus. Hope this helped. :)

I just found out I got into the best law school of all the Nordic countries. It's always been the biggest dream of mine even though I'm 99% sure I'll never become a lawyer. University up here in the north is free, so it isn't really a big investment when it comes to money - we actually get paid to go to university, around 1000 US dollars a month. They say here that law school is a really good base for any job really, so that's why I chose it. Hopefully it'll be worth the time and energy :) I'll definitely come back to your channel for study tips once it's time for the first exams!

Hi Lynnea, I have another kind of "Shoul I go to Law School" doubt.

[@quinneaton4466]

Tom G Most people just use loans for living expenses. Your first year you really should not work *at all.* Your next two years you can clerk part-time, although that certainly will not cover all your expenses. It's quite an investment.

[@Zadeska]

A lot of people hate law school, and enjoy being a lawyer. Some enjoy law school and hate being lawyer. Of course some love both and hate both. It's tricky to say whether law school is right for you. Non practicing law school graduates often make more than non law school graduates. Is that because they are over achievers and would make this anyways? Is it because they have huge debt and have to make more to remove it? Or is it because you learn things in school that apply everywhere else? I'm guessing it's a combo of all the above. I've met very wealthy people who got a law degree without any intentions of practicing, and leveraged it to do another profession super well. Maybe they got lucky, but I can't help but feel that law graduates get "lucky" often. Mostly because you learn so many skills in law school that people take for granted. Sure some employers will think you are too qualified for certain jobs, but are those jobs you actually want? All this to say it's such a personal choice.

[@shehroz6220]

The thing is that law is the last resort of students who did their undergrad in arts so it certainly isn't medical but it's a lot better than a sociology or political science degree.

[@violetroy5838]

AMEN! The very simple answer to the title video is "No!". I'm a lawyer and going to LS was the worst decision of my life. Not only is the field full of money-hungry, prestige-obsessed, and those devoid of any hobbies or passion, but law schools only care about their bottom line. They receive federal backed money so even if the students can't pay off the ridiculously overpriced tuition, the school coffer is full.

[@violetroy5838]

Shehroz, that shows a lack of planning with an important and life-changing decision such as college. I'm not judging at all b/c I wish I could rewind my life but since I can't, I speak up to help others. LS is a refuge for liberals arts majors, you are right about that. This is why I advise people to get an undergrad in something you're interested in but also something you can fall back on in case you don't like the law. You can't predict the future, but you can help your future self by not closing all options. I knew what lawyers did and have some in my family, always liked law and politics, but life threw me a curveball. I had no idea when I entered LS that I would end up hating the field, and mind you, I wanted to be a lawyer for a long time, so mine was not a last-minute decision. But here I am, absolutely miserable in the field and trying desperately to claw my way out. Life is unpredictable, and if law is one's last resort (like it is for many), the outcome is likely not going to be very good. Good luck in whatever you decide!

[@stumpbumpers]

So, how did you go from understanding what a lawyer does, desiring for so long to be one, make a plan to enter LS, become a lawyer and now "absolutely miserable"? Is it the work load, maybe the type of law you are doing? Too much time devoted to the practice? Is it your colleagues attitudes and politics? I have read your comments on other videos, but I have not read anything where you have actually stated what your problem with being a lawyer is.

[@violetroy5838]

Because such is life: unpredictable & abrupt, which is why I recommend potential law students to have a undergrad degree to fall back on in case they don't like practicing. I read the negative Internet stories about the legal field, thought it would be different for me & went on to make my own mistake, & live and learn. No amount of interning and observing will prepare you for the everyday life of a lawyer--a paralegal likely has a good understanding, however. My main problem is with LS that run a scam by not teaching marketable skills & haven't adapted to the new reality for lawyers. Main reasons why I don't like the legal field: -While others are juggling new business ideas & plans, you are not involved in tangible creation, but instead look out for the negatives at every turn & halt their excitement -Being chained to your desk reading & altering documents (ex: contracts as in-house counsel). Arguing with other lawyers about mundane clauses with the only purpose being to make someone else richer -No room for original thinking as you rely on statutes and past cases to make a determination in the issue at hand -The cost of attending LS, the bypassed income and experience isn't worth it for many. But, you don't have to believe me. You don't have to believe the high depression and substance abuse rates in the profession either, or that it is consistently among the unhappiest jobs in America. Good luck in whatever you decide.

don't use prep books, they will only slow u down, just schedule a test and take it, if u fail, keep taking it, until you research on ur own WHAT FUCKING BOOKS YOU SHOULD HAVE TO PREP FOR THE LSAT. No ones gonna hold your hands, figure it out on your own.

Dexter Lacy you’re just angry at the whole world aren’t you

[@tedled4710]

Dexter Lacy what's wrong with you?

[@RvonRentzell]

What school do u go to

[@shae4464]

I'm just making sure, do you need to get a bachelor degree in university before you go to law school, and if you do what did u major in I herd that political science or sociology is good, but is there any other ones or just those?

[@nocturne2029]

She_Wolf you need an undergrad and can get any undergrad you want; I recommend something you’re interested in (helps you do well if you’re actually interested in what you’re learning) and that you could deal with doing for a job of law school doesn’t work out

[@meganstirland9978]

Hi lynnea could you make a video on steps of getting to law school please it would be much appreciated xxx

[@robstars01]

Hello. I would like to apply to law schools but ı was wondering how are u handling Financial issues? I mean are there any scholarships for studying law? And according to what are they given? Thanks.

[@shehroz6220]

I wanted to be a professor but the remuneration for teaching jobs is quite low so now I'm looking at law. Do you think it's a good idea?

[@Ali-ro2vv117]

Professors in any given discipline are compensated quite well in North America, best to stay the course...

[@shehroz6220]

Yes in North America not in South Asia.

[@Ali-ro2vv117]

That's understandable, but if your passion is in teaching it would be worthwhile to stick to it. Of course I know very little about the discipline in which your passion lies, but if it coincides with law, or if law is something your are interested in (as means to your interest), then it never hurts to put your best foot forward and aspire to teach law at a higher level. My current philosophy professor is also taking night classes at the law faculty of a neighbouring university. Ultimately, do not be discouraged by your external limitations my friend. Higher education is (more often than not) a worthwhile investment.

what's the difference between a lawyer and a litigator

[@nocturne2029]

Ojima Ekere I believe a litigator is a specific type of lawyer, but I’m not 100% sure

[@karentu4679]

You need to post more frequently! i love your videos!

[@daeshunnelibalisi8643]

Oh boy now what should I pursue

[@futurekillerful]

Seems like the only realistic option in politics where you can make 6k is lawyer am I wrong or? Also I'm trying to decide between employment law and criminal... I'm interested in litigation and it seems both fulfill that, I also am interested in what either lawyer does so now I'm trying to figure out what's best financially between the two was wondering if you had any input. I'm really interested in one day holding a government posistion or posistion of a judge so also trying to see which one leads to that more so.

[@nocturne2029]

Dumbbells Only I wouldn’t really consider a lawyer to be a job in politics, but lots of politicians do have law backgrounds

[@newyyykkll]

I have chronic illness though. Do you think I should still consider doing law school?

[@nocturne2029]

URCHIN SAM what kind of chronic illness? I guess it depends on how heavily it would affect your ability to keep up with law school (ex. moderate arthritis won’t be as debilitating as something that has you bedridden).

[@chukchee]

Does law school teach you how to lie? Or is that something you learn after you graduate? Thanks.

[@newyyykkll]

I loved reading classic lit. Should I go to law school?

[@shellisesimmons3611]

I want to be a lawyer because I think lawyers makes a lot of money and I could help out my parents

[@Zaldaxlove65]

[@labrouillonne]

I won't go into Law school but your videos are really interesting !! 😃

[@topgames1113]

[@Nour-ci8eg]

[@nocturne2029]

[@nocturne2029]

DiaRia Grace p I don’t think she can help you with SATs because we don’t have those in Canada Also, you need an undergrad/bachelor’s degree to get into law school, as well as a good GPA and good LSAT score, not to mention a good application, resume, transcript etc

[@has-been-hot3l]
