Ladies in law - would appreciate any career / life advice y’all have to offer. This sounds bleak but I have generally had little passion in my work here and even looking through other industry roles, most corporate jobs do not excite me for the long term.

I have been thinking about law school for the past few months and the flame has definitely been fanned given all the recent events. Including some questions for any law school students / grads in the comments below. Appreciate your help!!

1. I feel as if I have missed key years of studying / experience (majored in tech/business) - what should I be doing now if I want to pivot?
(Note: I have signed up for some online UPenn intro law classes to determine if this is even something I am truly interested in)

2. Is a law degree worth it?
Every time I begin my research anew, I’m bombarded with articles that most law grads don’t think the degree was worth it / have general regrets with their careers / the job market is completely over saturated and over hyped

Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated :)
