It's just the thread discussion not the survey that made me feel old. Looking at the numbers makes me feel more at ease.

Yes, this. I'll be 29 when I start and I'll be trying to sell a house in a depressed market over a thousand miles away from where I will be attending school. Wish me luck! I'm pretty sure I won't be able to afford to pay a rent and a mortgage on a law student's salary. :?

Same here. People in their mid-20s saying "I feel so old!" need to cut it out. Life doesn't end at 29.

Currently 22, I've been feeling old and telling the freshmen and sophomores to "Enjoy (name of college)." :D

Will be in their place as the young'un when I attend law school in the fall.

24 now, 27 when I graduate. Seems to be around median. I felt young when I visited T14 and old when I visited state flagship.

Same age, and I felt right at median everywhere except when I looked into a a part-time program briefly. Then I felt pretty young...

I don't buy into the idea that there's some huge difference between being 21 and 24, especially if you're a college grad and have been living away from home/working summers etc. I personally wouldn't have wanted to start law school at 20, I'm enjoying my job and having some time away from school. Still, I just can't see it being some big disadvantage to start in your early twenties vs. mid twenties.

33 now and when I start, so 36 at graduation. I see I'm not the oldest based on the poll!
