Lignes directrices fédérales sur les pensions alimentaires pour enfants Book

I'm reviewing this from the perspective of someone who is thinking about Law School but has not yet applied or attended.

It's very useful, very practical. It makes the difficult reality very sharp which is necessary for something so expensive and so stressful and so long-term as law school and a career in it.

A couple of things I found a little meh:

1) There is a lot of law school jargon right from the beginning and it's rarely explained. That's a little annoying for most people who are not in law school. For instance, there's not much of an explanation on what a clerkship actually is. There's very little explanation even as to what a lawyer is and what their days are like which I think is important to understand if you're considering it as a career. Some careers are pretty obvious but the only thing most people know about lawyers is trial-related. The book keeps telling us very few lawyers actually SEE a court but doesn't really explain what most lawyers do most of the time. And when they do mention things, it's in jargon.

2) The book, I believe, is mostly targeted to people who have had law school in mind since high school. They went to prestigious undergraduate universities and are determined to nail a spot in the top 15 law schools. While I think that is well and good, I am not convinced the majority of law students are like this. I'm not even convinced the majority of successful lawyers and judges came from this. There is pretty much nothing for someone considering law as a career change.

If I do go to law school, I do think I would refer to this book again. And if I did, I will happily review it after graduating to weigh in on really just how much of it is accurate, useful, realistic, etc.
