i****y 发帖数: 5184 | 1 请教各位前辈,如果以下两种方式上law school都可以选择,你会建议哪种?
1。full time job (reduced billable),evening law school
2。full time law school,part time job(这个估计就每天做不了几个钟头了)
如果在DC area,应该怎么选?
如果在palo alto,又该怎么选?
if you can comment about the challenges, I will definitely appreciate more.
Thanks a lot! |
z***e 发帖数: 1757 | 2 I am in DC and going PT is an easy choice for me for a couple of reasons.
Without a greencard it is not that easy to find a part time job while in law
school. Also I need the money and benefit which come with the full time job
. You always have the option of switching from PT to FT after the first year
anyway.

o****e 发帖数: 195 | 3 Full-time school, part-time work.
You will be able to turn the part-time work into full time after the first
year, because if you already have a job, you don't need to go to classes.
You will also get to know other full-time students, who will turn into
higher-quality network resources than the night-school types.
Besides, three years of law school is already sickening, you don't want to
spend one day more than necessary there. |

I looked at the ranking list and seems most of the top ones do not have part
-time program.

so I assumed you want to stay in the area.

to non-IP students?

w*********n 发帖数: 331 | 10 如果现在的firm很好就上part-time, 如果不满意就上full-time好了。 我决定上full-
time就是因为Chicago没有什么很好的IP firm。 GP firm又不怎么招technical
adviser.
ironny的firm应该好得不能再好了吧。

m******t 发帖数: 1694 | 14 问题是, firm招人的时候, 看这种IP排名吗? 还是主要看school ranking? |

j*******g 发帖数: 188 | 18 FT law school and PT job is impossible for the first year.
If you have a family to support, you can try FT job while studying PT.
But remember, it's still very hard to find enough study time for 1L. |
