jd makes almost no difference, and the difference is made up in a very short period of time.

This is a bunch of bullshit.

I know the popular kids are too cool for school, but you're almost certainly underestimating what you learned in law school.

the same. corporate practice has very little to do with what is taught in law school.

probably the same after the first year of law school. any difference would be negligible after a months of working. last 2 years were worthless.

if you're a smart dood (Abe Lincoln, Justice Jackson, etc.) the JD is nearly worthless. if you have no business being a lawyer, "legal education" gives you the rudiments to fake it.

I'd be in worst shape.

I did Mock Trial and interned w/ a lawyer during undergrad so I'd know the basics.

But everything else I knew when I started this job came from 1L year.

So I would say that I need at least 1 year of legal education. The rest of the 2 yrs were absolutely pointless.
