Having had a chance to meet the talented Mr. Niewoehner during one of his recent autograph session/book reading at my local Jimbo's Bookwormania, I must confess that I was overwhelmed by is wonderous outlook on life and on law school. I found him, much like his book, to be an inspirational journey into legalistics. I, too, would someday love to attend that institution of institutions, Harvard Law School, and I believe that reading Mr. Niewoehner's book twice or perhaps even three times will start me in the right direction. It is, indeed, what I like to call a "must read" for the lawyers of the future! Yusuf Paradisi
A Must Read for Anyone Considering Law School
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I thought the book, notably the law school section, was superbly researched and written. A true must-read for anyone considering law school and a legal career.Currently attending a top law school myself, I thought some of the earlier reviews characterizing the book as "generic" or "common" were way off the mark and likely written by dumb poo-poo heads who went to state schools.

The best thing about this balanced, comprehensive review of law school is that it does not assume that everyone should go to law school. It provides a detailed description about what a law studen'ts life is like and carefully lays out both the costs and benefits of getting a law degree. Those who are dead-set on going to law school might want to skip ahead to the sections on applying, but anyone who is even mildly curious about what law school is like would benefit from the authors' depictions. The book also provides sound advice on deciding where, when, and how to apply; the calendar in the back is especially helpful. Although those who, like me, have already graduated college may find some of the advice on how to choose a major a little belated, the book does its best to be relevant to both younger and older students and doesn't make any assumptions about financial resources or academic qualifications, either. All in all, this book is a well- written primer for anyone thinking of becoming a lawyer.
