If you're interested in becoming a lawyer, I would talk to friends and neighbors and families who are lawyers and try to find the kind of lawyer you want to be. There are so many different ways of being a lawyer. You want to make sure you don't get in there just because you have nothing else to do in life. And that's a common joke in law is that, oh, I don't know what else to do in life. Maybe I'll go to law school. And people do that quite, quite often. They walk out of school with a large amount of debt and no idea what to do with that. So the best resources are people around you and then finding people you like. You can actually just Google types of lawyers and you get a list of 20 to 30 kinds of lawyers and find the things you're interested in. So don't go into law until you know the area of law you're interested in practicing because it may not exist and it may be different than you really think it's going to be.
