Everyone just stop responding to this guy. He clearly has issues. If you're going to contribute on the site, I don't think people care if you spell check or not. People who are interested in learning don't care if you use big words or little words.

In the last 2 months, starting law school salaries have gone through the roof...at the top 5 national firms they have now hit $140,000 a year. At the top 100 national firms the starting salaries hover around $105,000. If you have a background in intellectual property or information technology, you can earn signing bonuses on top of this.
If you graduate from law school at 24 and immediately start at $140k, earning 10-15% raises each year, you certainly are ahead of the game of the average b-school applicant. Prospective MBA's have to toil for 4-6 years before entering b-school to try to land that $125k job.
