Putting off Law School Debt

The American Bar Association is taking a stand for law students. With a poor economy and ever increasing prices of living and education, the ABA is asking Congress to help law students by giving them more time to pay off their debts.

According to an article on ABAJournal.com, the ABA is asking Congress to make commercial lenders allow law school students to put off paying back loans for up to 3 years. This postponement of payment has been allowed by federal student loan programs and, with the ABA’s hard work, future law students can hope the provision is extended to commercial loans.

Law school is very expensive and every little bit helps. So, stay tuned to this legislation.

The Infamous LSAT

I’m honestly scared to death of the LSAT.

Sure, it only tests of your ability to learn and reason quickly but, I know I will need help to make a good score. And, lucky for all of us who feel over-whelmed by the LSAT, there are many people who can help.

1) Princeton Review 2) Kaplan 3) Test Masters 4) Power Score 5) LSAC materials

There are many, many other test prep companies but, these are a few I have heard good things about. I don’t know everything though, so feel free to post information about classes you’ve taken for test prep.

I start taking a Kaplan class in two weeks. So, look forward to some first hand information about how I like the class!

Looking Ahead

Interesting insight from a real law school student who tells it like it is!

Between the reading, teachers and other students, law school can be intense enough to make some students drop out! But, if you check out Mr Law School on Youtube you’ll see he’s still alive, well and staying in school after a whole semester.
