Different bar associations regularly have trips to DC so lawyers can get sworn in at the U.S. Supreme Court. It's silly because the vast majority of them will never even have a case that goes before the U.S. Supreme Court.

I died laughing when they started in on the "no money" lawyer jobs because it's true. I'm one of the lucky ones with an awesome well-paying job in public interest, but I have a ton of friends who either wound up in soul-sucking jobs (because it is really competitive to get those no-money jobs) or they're living in a closet with five roommates. If you want to go into public interest lawyering, make sure you go to a law school with good public interest connections and a public interest loan repayment assistance program (basically a retroactive free ride). And get some work experience BEFORE law school. Don't just walk in the door the first day of law school and think, yeah, saving the world sounds cool. Public Interest law can be an amazing field, but getting a good job in it takes hard work, advanced planning, and some luck!

These programs are NOT the same across all schools and prospective students should really research them!

I graduated law school in 2020. Covid hit. I got a remote job. I've been working at home since. I live in NY and I've taken the bar 4 times. I passed 3/4 times for a few states--but not NY. I just took it again this summer. My mom always told me "I don't understand why you can't pass for NY. You're so smart." I can't tell her because I know it will break her heart, but part of my subconscious is saying that if I pass the bar to NY then I'll have to be an attorney. I'm still honestly on the fence. I do have a passing UBE and MPRE for Indiana and I can transfer there. I only have $3,500 of student loans left so if I do end up practicing it's because of the work--not because of the money. I think the student loans are a big reason why so many lawyers are miserable: they end up having to do a lot of work they don't want to do because they need to survive. They can' take that $55k job with a 35 hour work week and just watch sports and movies after work because they need to pay those big bills. Idk. Life is hard lol.

You should feel good! I was a lawyer for 5 years and I've just quit. It literally almost sucked the life out of me, I'd go as far as saying that most lawyers suffer from mental health issues/depression because of the INSANE hours you're required to do, and the extreme pressure/stress, all for something you HATE doing or, at best, mildly enjoy. Every lawyer I know is miserable, and we'd often gather in one of our colleagues' offices at 3am in the morning, while we were still working, and talk about how we wanted to quit and how much we hated our lives. But I'm the only one who had the balls to actually walk away. The money is good so people get mortgages, send their kids to private school etc. and then they have to keep working there to pay for their lifestyle. It's SO easy to get stuck and your whole life flashes and you have hated almost every second of it. So yeah, it's better to get out before even starting. And just know that if you pursue your dreams/passions and it all goes to shit, you can always go back to law school. It will always be there. (I don't recommend ever going back). Sorry for the rant.
