Has anyone here known someone who's entered a law program part time? I'm just curious about workload, etc. Since it only takes 4 years to graduate instead of the 3 it takes full time, it seems like the work load would be rather high.

Any know? I'm considering going back, and joining the dark side ;)

btw, no one here is in the SLU(Saint Louis University) law program are they!?

I know several people who have entered into a part time program. The work load is pretty high, but I think (my opinion ONLY) is that the profs scale back the intensity of the night program because most people work and go to school. The students also tend to be of a different breed and really just want to get in and out.

On a side note, I know several people who don't like practicing law. I suggest that you really research the practice of law and make sure that is what you want to do.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, I totally agree on the research thing... I'm just starting to look into it now.
