Law School

SofTest, which most law schools use (and most state bars use if they let you take your exam via computer) is NOT Mac compatible. I'm pretty sure even the new Macs that can run Windows aren't compatible.

Most of my Mac friends just get a loner computer for exams, or one of my friends went online and got an old IBM thinkpad for $100 and uses that for exams.

Then you should. Just make arrangements to take your exams on a PC.

unless you're wearing a hoodie, listening to emo, and hate your parents, theres no reason for you to buy a Mac. Buy a Dell like a normal human being who has a future.

I can think of a few very good Boston attorneys who love their Macs. A lot of people swear by them.

Regardless, I choose to judge people based on their non-conformist computer purchasing decisions.

Haha, fair enough; I have a Toshiba so it doesn't really matter to me anyway.
