You should check out the website they actually have some cool stuff... Just mad expensive. It's called tipsyelf
I'm literally looking at doing the same thing right now. Where did/are you going to school? I graduated in June with a political science degree and went through college planning on going to law school. I still have a month to decided, but I'm leaning towards going to USF and getting a masters in teaching/teaching credential to teach high school/coach baseball. The money actually gets pretty good once you get tenured (especially in Marin county) which is where I'm from. It's also way cheaper as 3 years of law school is about 125,000 while the masters program is about 35,000.

You can get in with a 3.0, as long as you still do decent on the LSAT. The whole thing about getting in a top tier law school is pretty overrated. As long as you finish high in your class wherever you go, and then pass the bar. You might not get in to the top firms, but honestly I wouldn't have any interest in working for a top firm if I decide to go the law route. Working 50-60 hour weeks at times with an inflated market for lawyers seeking jobs doesn't sound very appealing. I would much rather work for a smaller firm, and even schools like GGU work out pretty well. Check out bar pass/employment rates for graduates, GGU competes with the so called "top tier" schools pretty well. Although I would probably rather go to USF than GGU for law school.

As I said earlier in this post, getting into a top tier law school is overrated depending on what kind of law you want to do. I would prefer to do intellectual property, but I guess a top tier school could be more important if you are shooting for a job that incorporates your business background.
