be able to deal with the preasures that come with being a law stuident, or 
you will start telling her what your rights are. Please do us a favior! Go

>> Hello All,
>>
>> I wanted to ask for your advice regarding a question posed to me by my
>> VR Counselor. What occupation(s) could i list on my Individual Plan
>> for employment  (IPE) that require a JD but aren't "attorney" or
> "paralegal"?
>> I
>> am a partially sighted Minnesota resident registered with State
>> Services for the Blind(SSB), and would like to become an attorney,
>> but my counselor with SSB doesn't feel that she would be able to get
>> my IPE approved with an occupational goal of "attorney" due to the
>> extended time commitment of getting into and finishing law school.
>>
>> Thank you all for your time and attention in this important matter.
>>
>> Respectfully,
