I think its possible. Mark Moran (although in JD/MBA) comes to mind. You have 2 summers where you can try to get internships. 

Though, are they going to call you an analyst or an associate? Dropping that big tuition to come in as an analyst SUCKS!. 
 

If the answer above is analyst, or you strike out, I think there is some benefit to practicing law for a bit then lateraling out. Higher level + breadth of options. 

All this being said, 3 years of law school with the goal of not practicing law/getting out asap is something I would not do. If you're a smart lad getting a 175 lsat, how about deferred mba? Way more options in something that can interest you. 

 

You’re right that it’s better to pursue what interests me, but I’ll be the first to say that I have a useless women’s studies-type major with mind-numbingly woke entry-level job opportunities (i am a woman unfortunately). Right now I see myself with two options besides law school, considering my GPA. Dropping out and restarting school (4 years more) or just finishing my degree (1 year) and getting the shittiest NGO job. I feel like I’m fucked no matter how I move, which is why I’m so willing to throw my life away to compete with the Fedsoc crowd
