Cheney was president for a couple hours while GWB had a colonoscopy. Iraq won the Asian Cup. Elections were held in Sierra Leone. And, graduating law students had a pretty good job market. From Law.com:
Nearly 92 percent of 2007 law school graduates have jobs now, the highest reported figure in 20 years. And those who work at law firms are earning a median salary of $108,500 -- about $13,000 more than 2006 graduates were making when they started out.
Thanks a lot Mom and Dad! You couldn't have humped a little more in the early 80s? Now I'm stuck actually being concerned about on-campus interviews.
Of course, what is important is that the salaries were highly polarized. For everyone making 160k, there were many students making around 50k. It is very possible to make a nice living on 50k / year, but it is difficult to pay back huge loans and live the life of a lawyer like you had always imagined. Ya know, the luxury cars, the babes, poppin' bottles...or something.
So, like always, don't go to law school unless you get into a T14 school.
