Not necessarily a problem. In my McK summer class, there were JD and dual degree students, most of whom were splitting their summers with top law firms (think 10 top big law). So doing one doesn't preclude the other... but be aware these were all people with decent prior work experience who were also competitive with top law firms.

Also interested, was just about to post something about management consulting from law school, if you don't mind Genichi, can you post your law school admissions stats (UG GPA and LSAT)?

Edit: Just read all the other posts, I would include Cornell as a "top" law school because of the T14 designation (still don't get why it's T14 not T10). But regardless definitely a top law school.

To FarFromHome were these people just doing 6 weeks at McK and 6 weeks at the law firm?

Interesting posts everyone

 

I read this in your accent.
