at shabbat, a rabbi told this kid with a stem phd to come talk to me about ip law.

he's considering enrolling in cardozo at sticker in the fall. i asked if his parents were helping, and he said nope, and he'd have to take out full loans for it.

then i proceeded to give him xo scholarship on TTTs being a scam with bullshit employment data, whittier closing down, etc. told him he'll be 200k in debt and may never make that money back.

he said no lawyer he talked to ever told him any of this before. jfc are other lawyers not saying anything of this shit to him? how fucking irresponsible.

he seemed to think he'd be okay with a patent bar number. i told him that means you MIGHT get a medium-paying job doing patent prosecution, not that you'll get biglaw ip.

i told him to get into a patent agent program and have them pay for law school, or just stay a patent agent. and see if he likes it.

pddj said i literally crushed his life dreams. i couldnt tell bc im low eq but she said he seemed like he was about to cry.

"i told him to get into a patent agent program and have them pay for law school, or just stay a patent agent. and see if he likes it."

This makes a lot of sense. If he still wants to do it after learning a bit more (and potentially getting someone else to pay for it), godspeed.

I routinely get asked to speak to college juniors and seniors who are thinking about law school. I always try to discourage them by having the same sort of frank conversation you describe.

I am invariably the first one to go through the cost-benefit analysis with them.

Nearly every damn one of them has gone on to law school anyway, including several to TTTs and FTTs.

In an odd twist, that means that some who should not have gone to law school in the past because all they could muster would be a school in the 20-30 range are getting into decent programs, which might make it worth it.

maybe he's not that smart? maybe he didnt realize he needed to grind thru the 20 LSAT practice tests to get a 165 if he's stupid enough to go to cardozo?

if he is getting in to a good STEM PhD he is acing the GRE and a fortiori acing the LSAT

maybe he has weaker verbal / RC skills. alternatively, smart people sometimes are out of practice doing LSAT type shit if they're in stem. i know xo likes to think of the lsat as an intelligence test, but two similarly IQ people -- one who has been doing equations for 4 yrs, and the other who has been deconstructing arguments on xo for 4 yrs -- are gonna have diff LSAT results.

I'll buy that

as far as pure IQ tests go, GRE is closer than LSAT I'm sure, but that opens the door to a high IQ guy relatively bombing LSAT

I suppose he is avoiding post doc purgatory too, which isn't irrational

unless he has good grades, he's still got to have some luck to end up at a SHITTY biglaw place.

and then what? there's still ONE | WRONG | MOVE and he could be shitcanned from ipbiglaw. or economy could downturn and he could be latham'd.

and what's the exit option? in-house ip gigs are still fucking hard to come by. so 150k in-house if all the stars align.

and he's still got the debt. the point is he should have stayed in stem.

During the height of ITE, I was talking to a guy on his way to a true TTT after I noticed him studying for the LSAT in a bar. I told him that he shouldn't go and his argument that he should was that his friend (who went to a T14) was being paid $80k to not even work for a year. They're not worth saving.

I think you guys don't understand the calculus for many people $160K seems like a fuckton of money and they'll chance it and can't imagine all the expenses and bullshit that comes with it... I usually burst lawyer dreams by asking my students whether they love grammar and sentence construction and they never do and then I say well lawyering is all about split infinitives and comma placement (this usually comes during an office hours discussion while their paper lies before them bleeding)
