First year law student looking to pursue non-legal opportunities. I'm straight through undergrad. I have good LS grades and a light econ/finance background. I figure RE/RX is the two closest options to the legal field that might appreciate a JD.
The school I go to would be considered a semi-target for biglaw, and the undergrad is a semi-target for banks.
What should I do the next eight months to try and set myself up for Summer 2016?
I'm thinking about taking the GMAT this Summer.
does your school offer a jd/mba option?
Lots of networking. 1L summer opportunities are limited regardless of school. Obviously something finance related is ideal, but since you are a JD if you can snag a corp law SA that would help with your story.
Also, if you are serious do JD/MBA - you need access to their OCI to have a serious shot, especially since you have no work experience.
Yeah we have a jd/mba option. I'm looking into that though not sure if it will be worth it since the business school doesn't bring alot of Oci recruiters beyond undergrad and I have access to the undergrads career services.
I figure I might save that bullet for three or so years after law school if I do strike out. Thankfully I'm going to law school for cheap.
Are you right out of undergrad? In a similar spot, considering doing dual undergraduate business degree and Law degree combined. Any thoughts on that here?
