Law School Grads: Looks like the "JD = golden ticket" blinders are off . . .

Did you see this article and survey from the ABA Journal last week?  The article asked readers to answer these six questions in the comment section:

  1. How long did it take you to get a job in the legal field?
  2. Did you get the position you wanted, or did you compromise?
  3. How many interviews did you go on?
  4. What was your salary range for that first job?
  5. Would you recommend attending law school to a recent graduate?
  6. What year did you graduate from law school?
So far, over 200 comments have been left from law school graduates.  The overall tone?  Don’t pursue a JD unless you have significant ties to the profession or deep burning desire to be a lawyer.   YLB readers, what do you think?
