It worked out for me because I was lucky enough to have been born on third base as far as the legal field is concerned. For students going through right now, my advice is to get as much out-of-school legal experience as possible. If that means taking unpaid internships, DO IT.
It's like you said above, you're getting the return on your investment. The problem now is that a lot of people are not getting their expected return on their investment even though they shouldn't have expected that much of a return.

The people who are suing their law schools thought the Tier 4 regional school would still allow them to play ball with the Tier 1 kids on the national field. That's not true, and it's never been true.
