Think about how much money that would cost.rayiner wrote:If I had listened to my school and friends, I would be attending Georgia State next year...Considering the cost and commitment necessary for law school I would say that trusting schools and uninformed friends IS ridiculous.
<3 Res. I'm glad you are as you are, and glad we'll be in the same wonderful city. Hopefully my conclusions were unnecessarily pessimistic. I go back and forth between optimism and fear every day. The fear is always there, despite hope, hard work, and the support of friends. Will it ever be altogether vanquished?ResIpsaLoquitur wrote:OS, Fordham is love lol.

Now look at how much you will actually be spending.
Get back to me.
That's why he finished with a tempered "Get back to me" not a definitive "In your eye."sentinal5656 wrote:but he has a better chance at a job.Cleareyes wrote:Think about how much money that would cost.rayiner wrote:If I had listened to my school and friends, I would be attending Georgia State next year...Considering the cost and commitment necessary for law school I would say that trusting schools and uninformed friends IS ridiculous.

Shhh. I'm trying to work Rayiner up into a state thinking about his potential debt load and the chance he might somehow miss big law. Obviously Georgetown is the better choice for what he wants.sentinal5656 wrote:but he has a better chance at a job.Cleareyes wrote:Think about how much money that would cost.rayiner wrote:If I had listened to my school and friends, I would be attending Georgia State next year...Considering the cost and commitment necessary for law school I would say that trusting schools and uninformed friends IS ridiculous.

well, that'll really work well now.Cleareyes wrote:Shhh. I'm trying to work Rayiner up into a state thinking about his potential debt load and the chance he might somehow miss big law. Obviously Georgetown is the better choice for what he wants.
I figure he already read my first post and went to the bathroom to cry his eyes out and take a couple hits off his stash of Nyquil.

Congrats on your summer job Grad_Student...and fwiw, I've heard real good things about your school. Houston is one of the cities I'm targeting so I've done a little research.Grad_Student wrote:I just get tired of the "I'm at a TTT, pity me, I can't find a job because I won't leave"Olto wrote:Grad_Student wrote:Fuck it, I'm tired of this shit hole stories. Here's mine:

Point is, if you are going to go to a TTT in a market that is overly saturated with schools that are ranked higher than you don't fucking bitch. Second, get the fuck out of NYC if you are working at fucking IHOP. What the fuck is wrong with you?! Work in a small county, move to a smaller city, just stop working at fucking IHOP.
You sound like a very pleasant person. Thanks for your insight.
Maybe you could fill it upResIpsaLoquitur wrote:im still feeling that this thread has a huge void.
It does. Love of learning, perhaps? I'm still up for that, if you are.ResIpsaLoquitur wrote:im still feeling that this thread has a huge void.
Oh, I've thought about it. GULC will cost me $150k and the number is frankly freaking me out a bit. And ITE, even lower T14 should be a bit nervous...Cleareyes wrote:Shhh.

I'd think twice before assuming you'd get hired as an engineer after earning a JD!rayiner wrote:Oh, I've thought about it. GULC will cost me $150k and the number is frankly freaking me out a bit.

That being said, the least amount of money I'll ever make is $70k, so I'll be able to pay off my LS debt one way or the other. Real-world marketable skills FTW.
I have an open job offer at a successful startup that will allow me to reenter engineering after I flame out of GULC.Lxw wrote:I'd think twice before assuming you'd get hired as an engineer after earning a JD!rayiner wrote:Oh, I've thought about it.

Aren't you the one who's always saying "If New York City big law is what you want then you should not go to Vermont Law School?"reasonable_man wrote:Um... How did I get brought into this mess?

But perhaps this fellow is on to something? TTT Law schools might now place well in NY?The super frustrating thing about the post is that it wasn't even his TTT that let him down. According to him, employers in Vermont were very interested in him. If you went to a TTT and employers in your state are interested in hiring you then congratulations, you made a good decision, worked hard, and it paid off. And after running the TTT gambit he decides to chuck the success and head off to New York City to work at IHOP.reasonable_man wrote:
I thought my message was a little more broad than that lol

That should tell you something right there.
Don't you see? We should've become HVAC technicians!
