The verdict is in: this book is a must-read for anyone considering law school, and even offers a lot to those already in law school. Im a former attorney who burned out and left law practice after several years, and this book would definitely have been a huge help to me before I even started applying to law school. Jolene Blackbourn offers a lot of very practical and excellent advice that is worth its weight in gold! I wish I had asked myself all the questions she raises before I started my legal journey.
