I have a few friends that went to be paralegals at Skadden and Cravath before applying to law school. They worked a ton of hours and made good money so they could pay for their education on their own. I don't know if it shows you're more dedicated to law or if it gives you an advantage if you apply to those firms after law school. Also they said most people there doing the paralegal thing for a year or two got the job through family connections because it's not rocket science.
