No flame. This is very realistic option and gives a good, stable career path. Just figure out the necessary science requirements, take the OAT, and have an undergrad GPA of at least 3.2

No, these are the shit optometry jobs that most get stuck with (the pay and hours are described accurately). Working for an established private practice/ ophthalmologist get you 120K with slightly more hours while not working in the mall/ walmart all day. In any case, this is path is a reasonable option.

What the hell are you interested in doing? You are 26, did you work somewhere before LS? Why did you drop out of LS?

Why not go to DC and work on the Hill or some place for super cheap. Have some fun. Cop dat MPP if you're interested in policy.

You realize like 95% of JDs would prefer to have dropped out with little debt rather than be a lawyer?

TBF it really comes down to this: are you good at math?

If so, pursue an M.A. or MBA that focuses on quant issues

If not, MPP/MPA

I have some solid advice. Transfer to a California correspondence law school. They are super cheap, like 4-5k min a year, and you come out with the same law degree. Only catch is you have to pass a performance test after one 1L, and are limited in states you can practice in. But you can't beat the price, and they take people with 2 year associates, so with a BA you are a lock. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't be a lawyer. Also they won't care if you flunked out of an ABA school, you will be a step up for them. Just an FYI buddy!

I admittedly don't know much about career job prospects nowadays, but i was in the same situation as OP 4 years ago (with the major exceptions of being 23 and having my premed requirements finished). Now a rising senior in dental school, things have worked out. But during that pretty awful period in my life, accounting was a much safer/ open option than law - and i very nearly went that route of a cheap combination masters in accounting and taxation. Have things changed so drastically?

You should be able to transfer your base credits to a good flagship state school (hopefully you have one). Get a second bachelors in something meaningful (STEM, pre-med/pharma, etc) w/in 2.5 years. Shorter journey than lawl school.

I'd go CS which would probably take more like 3 years, but the course load would be lighter since the chain of pre-reqs, which is fine bc then you can work part time on programming jobs and get valuable experience. Then when you graduate with experience you can press the "I WIN" button.
