It isn’t that hard to get a law degree. It is very, very difficult to excel in law school.

If your goal is to get a high paying job out of school, you generally must excel.

To excel in law school you need to be moderately bright, have a decent memory, be a quick typist, and an excellent writer.

Typing and writing are the best ways to prepare for law school.

The LSAT does as good as the school and scholarship it gets you into. No more no less. It can also be a good personal evaluation tool.

Don’t go to law school to become rich. Go to law school if you think you’ll excel at and/or enjoy being a lawyer.
