Rethinking Law School - too late

Maybe it's not too late for you to rethink law school. Ann Althouse links to an article on the topic and some thoughts of her own:

Smart young people who want to do well but can't figure out exactly what they want to do often go to law school. The theory is they'll at least be progressing toward a real career. Is this such a bad idea? Well, it's very expensive! And it's a lot of work. And if you don't have focused goals, you're quite likely to find yourself bumbling along with the crowd into a job you don't like at all. And having spent all that money and done all that work, you're also going to find it hard to say no to that job. This is all very conventional wisdom among people who have already gone to law school.

Substitute "grad school" or "business school" for "law school" and you cover many of my friends and acquaintances.
