Law School

[SackUp]

oh ya and I also suggest taking a year or so off before going. Make sure you are really ready to dedicate yourself to school. My senior year of college was a big party and there was no way I was in the mindset to go hardcore into school. This obviously varies by person but on the whole I think most people do better after taking some time off.

Going to law school to probably not practice law seems a little strange to me. It's 3 years of your life stuck with argumentative people who are largely really into something that you don't care much about.

The possibilities of having a 2+2 OOTer in a position of power in Washington in the future is slightly disconcerting to me.

The notion that a Georgetown Law student is powerful is more disconcerting.
