Is there any path moar credited than this?

Assume NO DEBT from TTT State U because each semester is $2.5k.

Additionally, assume you are from NYC and live @ home during CLS and both summers. Save a shit load of $$$ and graduate with NO DEBT.

why not just assume that someone with a Norman Bates complex wins the lottery and bypasses the hell that is law school? wouldn't that be even *more* "credited" under the OP?

what a dumb hypo then. you should have initially asked what was the most credited path for a poor from a TTT UG focused on corporate law.

apart from your situation there are obviously more credited paths, but you didn't make it clear in the OP that the hypo was restricted to your situation, which you failed to disclose at first.

first of all, going to a prestigious UG for anything is an obviously more credited path. second, not going into law. third, for law, you could go lit and clerk COA--->SCOTUS--->W&C-caliber firm. Or you could go the public route with V10 or prestigious boutique/DOJ honors--->SDNY/EDNY/2nd circuit--->USAO

there's tons of ways to make money without going into LAW. You're just not imaginative enough to think of them.

Your legal salary is also likely to max out around 220k. If you go into law for the money you will not last at a firm. The people who make partner are the ones who turn law into their life.

no, i am imaginative enough to think of them, but as far as *working for the man* goes - there are not 'tons of ways.'

obviously going into sales or some sort of entrepreneurial endeavor have much higher potential.

what are some other careers that provide such a high salary so early on in a career?
