Can anyone tell me the difference - pros/cons between a full time and a part time law school program?

PT takes longer, and it's usually assumed you will be working a regular job in addition to going to school.

Easier to get in to a PT program (usually), though.

Sometimes PT students are ineligible for scholarships, etc., which sucks. Also, many of the part time programs are 4 classes a semester, which is not a lot less than the 5-6 of full-time programs.
