Law school: don't do it.
I'm kidding, kind of -- just make sure law is really, really, really what you want to do. If you don't know your Myers Briggs type, that might be a good place to start, because I think there are some personality types that are not suited for careers in the legal field (why yes, I am talking about myself).
Make sure you've asked yourself the following questions --
What kind of law do you want to practice?
Do you have realistic expectations (for example, 99% of the people who say they want to do "entertainment law" are in for a world of pain and disappointment, and you probably won't make more than $50k a year, if you're lucky, if you want to do some type of public interest law)?
In what kind of environment do you want to work?
