Outstanding Advice for the Potential Law School Applicant

I want to draw your attention to some exceptionally insightful writing of Central Michigan University Professor Emeritus David Guenther. I recently came across his internet work "To Be Or Not To Be [A Lawyer], That Is The Question." In it, Professor Guenther offered his top ten reasons as to why someone should not want to become a lawyer, followed by his top ten reasons as to why someone should want to become a lawyer.

In my opinion, Professor Guenther generously shared from his life and professional experience valuable nuggets of information enormously useful to the potential law school applicant. If you are stuck in trying to craft a personal statement for your target law school, see if Professor Guenther's ideas stimulate your thinking. Notice his balanced use of life learning, humor, advice sensitively proffered, and tight, effective writing. He models what the serious law school applicant should strive for in his or her written work for a law school admissions committee.


Thank you, Professor Guenther.
