A couple weeks ago, I read where a young gal was brought before the Ohio Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline as a law student because of erratic behavior and test responses during the Ohio bar exam. She attended Dayton Law School. The facts indicated she had about $223,000 in school loan debt!! How in the hell can this happen? What a fool!
If you are certain about what you want to do—specifically, then find the best place to do it.
If you have no clue, or just a general idea, go local and cheap. Then transfer when you figured it out.
