Keep your options open -- lots of us find ourselves in a practice we didn't anticipate when we were in law school. But if you really think you might be headed toward med-mal defense, then by all means take some classes to give yourself some medical background.

What is a professional organization with greek letters (mentioned earlier) as opposed to a fraternity? I just searched "professional organization with greek letters" and came up with Phi Alpha Delta for law. Is this a fraternity of brothers who live together? etc.

Here's
the Wiki's article on professional fraternities. (You might also take a look at the Wiki on "
Types of fraternities.") Professional fraternities will almost always be co-ed, and the focus is usually on personal professional development and advancement of the profession itself. On some campuses, some may have houses and operate more or less like social/general fraternities (what you are probably thinking of when you simply refer to "fraternities"), with the exception of being co-ed, but most do not. I've never heard of a Phi Alpha Delta chapter having a house.
