Exit Options for Patent Law Forum

[letsplayball]

I will be starting law school next year and I want to get into patent law. I have a BS and MS in EE and think that if I do well in law school will be able to land a biglaw or IP boutique job. My question regards the difference between exit options for patent lawyers in litigation vs prosecution. I want to go into the law school experience as knowledgable as possible, and the limited research I've done seems to point to the fact that if you don't make partner at a biglaw firm doing litigation, you are pretty much screwed, but that there are tons of exit options for prosecution. I personally think that litigation would be better for me because prosecution is just so boring, and I do know that litigation is much more lucrative. However, there is a very small chance of actually making partner at a biglaw firm, so with that in mind would it be a wiser career decision to do prosecution? Or are there similar exit options for litigation?

Thanks!
