In Reply To: I might (still not 100% sure) be going to law school pt in the fall and I was given the option of taking the 2 classes I missed over the summer (day classes) so that I can continue ft the fall of the 2nd year. Am I going to be at a disadvantage if I don't get some experience that summer because of those 2 classes? Also, will it look bad if I do not work while attending law school pt or work at a non-law related job? Thanx for the help :o)
Message: You need some practical experience, too. Take the 2 classes, but also contact your local legal aid and ask if you can do an unpaid internship. The resume item matters a bit, but the experience matters more.
