I have several potential career plans mapped out and I don't pretend to know which is best, but one of them leads to the life of a patent lawyer. I'd graduate from undergrad, go to the peace corps for two years, go to grad school for physics and then enter law school. I'd finish law school as a 30 year old and settle down to business...
There will be about a 7 year gap between my undergrad graduation and my entrance to law school. I know the Physics Forums isn't exactly a common haunt for lawyers, but does anyone know how law schools would judge such an applicant? Would they look at undergrad grades, or graduate school gpa? What would be the criterion for entrance exactly?
By the way, I don't want to skip the PhD and go for law school, because I'm relying on my experience as a grad student and researcher to help me decide if I want to continue as a postdoc or as a student of the law...
Oh and does a fundamental disbelief in the rule of law complicate things? :uhh:
