Cooley is not a respected law school, not even close. "Rank not Published" by US
News. Their ranking is 300th or worse.

She will be in her 40's when she graduates, how much is she going to make in a shortened career?

Cooley is not good, or selective. If she needed several attempts at the LSAT to get in to such a bad school, how well will she do in law school?

There are thousands of recent graduates from good law schools that are unemployed. Why would one count on graduating from a bad law school and doing better?

If she got a full ride somewhere, I would tell her to chase her dream. But going in to massive debt to then face poor employment prospects is a different matter and I would tell my sis to be realistic.

Yes, I am an attorney. I have hired about 10 attorneys in the last few years, I have good feel for the market.
