3 Common Myths about Law School

Laura is currently serving as the interim pre-law adviser at Georgetown University's Cawley Career Education Center. Her article, "Top 3 Myths Your High School Clients Believe About Law School," was recently featured in the Independent Educational Consultants Association Newsletter. Common misconceptions about law school include:

• Myth #1: I have to go to a "prestigious" college and major in political science to have a chance at attending a top-tier law school.
• Myth #2: I hate public speaking / I don’t want to deal with criminals / I don’t want to work a million hours in a big law firm...so being a lawyer isn’t for me.
  
• Myth #3: I’ll never do well on the LSAT because of those tricky logic games, so I can’t get into a “good” law school.
