Current Law Students / Re: are there any 3L's out there who don't regret going to law school?

Meh, I disagree. I have a job offers but I’m probably not going to take them. I don’t have an offer doing what I want to, and I may not have one by the time I graduate. I may be without a job for awhile, but that does not mean I regret going to law school.
I did not go in thinking I would have something handed to me, or that finding a job I was willing to take would be easy. I expected it to be tough, and my expectations where right. My hunch is those that went in with high expectations without much thought to what might happen if they did not work out are more disappointed than others.
I don’t think it comes down to job/no job only. I bet plenty of people are taking jobs now that they never would have thought of 3 years ago and that they are not happy with because they thought going in everything was going to come up roses. Call me a pessimist, but I always think things are going to come out crappy, so I’m rarely disappointed, or uprepared when they do.
I take the same approach and always have. Just look at my name..."Hopeless."
