Does it take 8 years of college to become a lawyer? -

I want to be a lawyer, but does it take 8 years?? How much does a lawyer make? I m not in it for the money, I m just curious. Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be a lawyer of some sort.

Yes it takes approximately 6 years !!, The earnings of lawyers, as in any profession is dependent upon their learning, skill and dedication to job !!

Law school is usually three years more after college. The amount of money you make depends on what type of lawyer you are and where you work. I think most lawyers start out around $50K and work up to around $120K (United States). The only problem with law school is that about 2/3 of the people drop out in the first year. There s an insane amount of reading. But if you re motivated, it s well worth it.

No, 7 years. 4 for the undergrad degree and 3 for law school. Depending how long it takes you to study and pass the BAR exam it can be close to 8 years. Money can vary depending on which area of law you practice, the firm you work for, etc. It can be 35K or 200,000 +

I believe it is 7 years--4 years undergrate and 3 years of law school. You can get information about what lawyers earn at: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos053.htm

lawyers make between 50 thousand and ten million..............you can do it in 6 years.........

law school to get a JD degree (the most common) is usually three full time years after you receive your bachelor s degree. most lawyers then have to pass the bar exam.

It takes at least 7 years - 4 years for a bachelor/undergraduate degree and 3 years of law school itself. Lawyers can make anywhere from $30,000 a year to millions a year. If you re not in it for the money, keep reading. The competition is very tough out there and there is not a demand for lawyers. Sometimes it s either $100,000 or nothing for a typical lawyer. It s a cutthroat business and you have to know people to succeed in it.
