USA also has like 50% of the global legal market. So, not crazy that we'd want more highly trained professionals
Most countries have a 5 year law school program that folks need to complete in order to qualify to write a bar exam of sorts. So if you’re looking for more highly trained legal professionals, we’d have to look outside, based just on law school training.
Lawyers here are more worldly? America's secondary education system is shit so you have to make up for it in undergrad? who knows
Scalia thought the third year should be an apprenticeship instead of classes
I did a dual degree so although I did summer courses I was only technically enrolled in the law school 1L and 3L.....I was all set.
More money for the universities. Has nothing to do with making better lawyers or helping your life in any way.
This is the only right answer
Put an 18 year old high school grad in a 1L section. By Thanksgiving the school will host a funeral for the poor soul.
We had an 18yr old in our class. She/he failed the shit out of 1L year, but graduated on time lol

In Ireland, I think it’s a 4 year undergrad degree, followed by 2 years as a “trainee”, punctuated with exams. Believe it’s the same in the UK.
Countries that foot the bill for education are more practical?
In the Uk we do 3 years of undergrad (Law), then another year of law school to do a course called the Legal Practice Course, then a two year ‘training contract’ which is essentially an apprenticeship. So 6 years to get qualified which is basically the same as you US guys
We do 4 years undergrad unrelated to law - then 3 years of law school so having 4 years of legal studies is actually more than we have. Many people then do a clerkship which is like an apprenticeship for a judge, but it's not required to practice. Canada I think does the same education program as US but also requires the apprenticeship - which I think should be mandatory too.
