College Student asked:


I am assuming here that an attorney is the same thing as a lawyer, but I don’t know how to become one. I do know enough about nurses so no need to reply with that info.

I would say definitely attorneys! I am a nurse- but attorneys- which are the same as lawyers usually get bad reputations as being sharks- at least here they do! You can ask a college advisor about becoming an attorney-db

Nurses. If you have 50 RNs, they are ALL usefull, they ALL make about $200 an hour. Or whatever. And fifty nurses is STILL not enough to fill the shortage. Conversely, If you have 100 attorneys, only ONE of them is making any money, the one with no conscience whatsoever. The other 99 are waiting tables somewhere.

Attorneys

It takes about 7 years to complete the degree of becoming a attorney and believe me, attorneys do make much much more money than a nurse, but please do not let that make you to choose the wrong career path.

An attorney’s job is very, very stressfull and when becoming a nurse can be very tiring.

The average attorney makes considerably more money than the average nurse.

However, some nurses make more money than some attorneys.

Some U.S. States have no requirement that an attorney have graduated from a law school … just pass the state’s bar exam. Most U.S. States require attorneys to have graduated from a law school and have passed the state’s bar exam. All states bar exams are very difficult with some state’s exams being even more difficult. Many law school graduates have great difficulty in passing the bar exam … many take it several or more times before passing and some never pass it.

Law school is usually 3 years, which one can apply to enter after completing 4 years of undergraduate studies in any major at a recognized 4 year institution. Undergraduate grades and test scores on the LSAT (exam to enter law school) are weighed heavily on consideration for entry.
