The LSAT is one hell of a hard test. Definitely weeds out bad test takers. But that's all it tests.... how good you are in taking tests. It's unfortunate that law schools are such slaves to the LSAT e.g. Harvard only taking LSAT scores of 171 and up. So, good test takers go to "good" schools, everyone else goes to "second class" schools. However, the school you came from is not indicative of how good you are as an attorney.
Indeed some of the baddest ass attorneys out there went to lower level/second class schools. Robert Shapiro went to Loyola, definitely a second tier school. Nor does good grades in law school predict success. A good example is the guy who won the multi BILLION tortious interference with contract case against Texaco in the mid 80's... he FAILED torts during law school. LOL.
So...my advice is... go to law school if you wish to learn and you wish to take on a challenge. Having your head clear re what your goals are will definitely see you through in the challenges that law school entails.
Best of luck to ya, BVF.
