100 Blog Posts About Going To Law School

There are a large number of law students who are members of The Posse List, as well non-law students who follow our articles and have written to us about attending law school. So we thought we’d post an item from The Adjunct Law Prof Blog which has linked to a post by Hannah Watson of Onlinecourses.org  entitled “100 Blog Posts About Going To Law School” which you can access here.   The posts are arranged by groupstopics such as getting in, why do you want to go to law school, reasons to avoid law school, reasons to still go, what to do when you get there, etc.

And they cover the mega-issues:  law student loan debt, dealing with debt, loan forgiveness, the lousy job market, etc.  Several posts emphasize “think about the debt and job prospects before you do this”.

Note: there are lots of links and sublinks and they discuss the pro and con — the good, the bad, and the ugly.  But they avoid links or discussion to such sites as Lawyers Against The Law School Scam which chronicle  inflated job and salary statistics spread in the media by law schools, and the surplus of lawyers created by those reports.

Of interest to many Posse List members are the links to job search engines, alternative opportunities wih law degrees, social networking sites for lawyers, blogging to create a presence, etc.   We have posted similar links on our companion site The Posse Ranch and in our Trends series (click here).
