[blindlaw] Choosing Graduate School or Law School

[nmpbrat at aol.com]

I respectfully disagree to the part where you said "Both are terrible options".  I haven't gone to law school so I can't speak directly to that but I have been to and completed grad school and frankly, I enjoyed it...I mean, as much as one can enjoy having to go back to school and having to shell out thousands of dollars to do it.  I would agree that marketability would be better with grad school.  I think there are more options once you're done.  I also think grad school can be cheaper than law school but that of course also depends on which grad school and program you enter.

Making the choice between grad school and law school is like making the choice between lethal injection and the electric chair. Both are terrible options.
