No offense, but last semester of undergrad is a little late to be trying to enhance a law school application. Only exception is if he’s willing to wait a year or two and get some real world experience. If so, I’d recommend the Peace Corps or teaching public school in an urban area.

Another possibility: find out if any of his former professors have a good track record of landing students in good schools and seek out a recommendation.

If his applications aren’t already completed and turned in, however, he’s going to be at a huge disadvantage this cycle.

“Peace Corps”

Just as long as you never want a security clearance, perhaps.

Most law schools don't want to see you until a year has passed by your undergrad degree. They don't want you just going to law school because the job market is poor as an undergrad and it's a good place to pass time and someone elses money.

I'm not sure if that's a new trend or not, but that's what my daughter found. She's temping in finance until the fall. She's been working with insurance laws and the prelude to Obamacare with a consulting firm. It's a job getting clients ready for Obamacare compliance.
