Law School Discussion

You have posted this several times on the board.  Are you the author of this article?  The article is misleading in that it states that Western State is unaccredited.  Western state receievd accreditation from the ABA in 1995.   You must be quite bitter to rant this way about your former alma mater.

Good blessings to you all.  I hope that you do very well at University of LaVerne. 

 :)You're an inspiration and a positive person.  I wish you'd visit the prelaw board and set the naysayers on that board (many of them haven't even begun law school) straight. 

I understand it's a waste of money.  You pay over $1,000 for a 5 day briefing of first year classes.  Most law schools give you that during orientation.  Think about it:  how much do you think you're going to learn in 5 days?

It seems that most 1L's have to take our loans to cover their living expenses, etc.  When applying for an apartment how do you explain income or do you inform the landlord that you're going to pay your rent with student loans?  Also would you stay in your current home if moving closer to your school meant you would pay double the rent?  I currently live two hours away from the law school that I will be attending in the fall.  I'd like to move closer to the law school because I think the 2 hour each way commute would be detrimental to my studies?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
