Hardly. I don't make blind choices and a lot of alumni have told me that if you are not in the top 25% or so, you will not be offered a job at a medium to a large firm were you can make the money you need to at least pay for your loans. If you are happy doing legal work that a legal secretary can do, then yeah-do what ever you want in law school. To be competetive you have to be among the best in your class.

The accountants and engineers among my friends are a lot less freaked out than the general business and art history kids right now about undertaking all that loan debt.

Engineering is ridiculous right now. A buddy of mine is a year from graduating and has around a 2.6 gpa and already has an awesome job waiting for him.
