I mean, there are other extremely disturbing judgments in that post but we can just go one by one right now. You're also the kid who is going to go to a shitty school with no real plan for success and who doesn't want to retake the LSAT. Maybe this is the pot feeling like it has to be better than the kettle?

Also, don't forget, almost all law is failure. Sincerely and truly, from the bottom of what was once a heart, hope that helps.
Lol you sound like the one who needs counseling friend.
Okay.

Lol you sound like the one who needs counseling friend. I never said going to a "bad school" is terrible. Is it stupid to pay $250k for a legal education? Yes. Makes it stupider when you go to a TTTT in Arizona when you're from Wyoming and want to work in NYC. Now if you tell me you're going to a small TTTT in Georgia and you are from the area and want to work there at a small firm full of that TTTTs grads, it's not stupid. Especially if you get scholly $$$. But the biglaw or bust prospective student doesn't see it that way.
If you follow your own plan and try to swing top of your class at your TTT and transfer to a T14, you will be stuck with $200k+ debt.

"The pot feeling like it needs to be better than the kettle" shouldn't be a proverb, if it even is one.

TITCR = biglaw or bust because you have to is dumb, and being dumb is dumb also (be it via making bad choices or just sucking at LSAT and/or college courses). don't do either and you'll be fine.
