想在美国做Circumcision手术,其实回国也可以做,国内算是门诊手术,但可能得休息
1周,很麻烦,所以想问问如果在美国做。
听说好像美国一般都是刚刚出生的时候给做的,所以不知道20多岁的应该怎么个流程,
步骤。找医生?去医院?比较茫然,因为自己也最多看看感冒,不知道这种应该怎么个
步骤?一般花费多少呢?大家给点建议把,谢谢啦!

Not necessarily. That used to be my primary goal of going to law school,
however, circumstances changed, and I am currently leaning towards business/
corporate law. (merging, acquisition, etc)
one major concern of my family and of me, is what the job market is like for
gtown graduates (assuming I will be able to graduate, which I'm not
entirely sure anymore bcz of the limited funding). For a lot of people like
my parents, the risks seem too big for me to take.
Can anybody please shed some light on the employment prospects of a j.d.
from gtown? (assuming I am a mediocre student with median gpa, which i don't
think i am, but for the sake of expectation management, assuming that I am)
and another very important question, living expenses in dc are prohibitively
high, is there any way to lower this part of the cost?
last but not least, what is the chance of getting a summer assoc position
with decent payment for gtown l1 law student? (again, assuming academic
mediocrity)
some of these questions may seem naive and even insultingly jejune, but i am
making a sizable gamble with my family's money and future, therefore, I
want to be accurate about certain facts before i dive into the legal
profession.
Any answers to any of these questions will be whole-heartedly welcome and I
really appreciate your insight and input on this decision.
Thank you all.

Job market for law is terrible terrible right now,IP is doing slight better
than the other fields.
It goes back how strong your language ability is, if you are as good as
native speaker, a median student at GTLC should land a pretty decent summer
association position.
Living expenses in dc is not too bad, all the major law market is around
major metropolitan area, think about bay area, boston, new york. (Dallas is
maybe the only exception).
Just for your consideration, a few friends of mine are biostat, they are
comfortably making 95-115K a year with excellent healthcare benefits.

my english is almost indistinguishable from that of a native speaker (not an
exaggerated claim)
the projected living expenses in DC are 24k/yr, which is still a significant
amount if you ask me.
and again, the total funding from my family will only be 140k, which means I
practically have to come up with another 60~70k during law school on my own
. If not my education will become an inexorable burden on my family.
now the question becomes, with aforementioned credentials&limitations, do
you think a legal education in gtown is viable, and perhaps more importantly
, worthwhile?
P.S. I really appreciate your interest in my problem and I am grateful that
you are patient with me.

A coordinator from the FA office at GTOWN contacted me saying that they are
sending out scholarship awards now, but I have received no email so far
regarding that matter. therefore, I am planning under the assumption that I
will not be receiving any financial aid from gtlc.
I am drafting an email advocating my case and inquiring about the
possibilities of partial funding for me. however, i am not sure who is the
person to contact or to whom i address these issues. A little discombublated
and discouraged right now.

Chances are you either get a big law job with a $160K+ salary as a first
year or nothing. Check out the link below for percentage of 2011 graduates
who went to big law for top law schools. Bear in mind there were people with
good grades but decided not to go to law firms for various reasons.

1. it's GULC, not GTLC
2. the tuition is more like $130k-$140k, but including living expense, $200k
sounds like a reasonable number
3. summers are paid over $3000 (in the $3000-$3500 range) a week at big law
nowadays, not $2000.
4. No one can guarantee you a job out of law school. That said, you don't
have to make yourself an average student and then take more risk on the job
market. YOU are the most important risk factor, and it's a factor YOU can
control.
5. I agree with alava above that as an international student, you either get
a great job (big law, high pay), or you get nothing (public interest or a
lot other opportunity isn't an option for you). That said, every Chinese
student I know at GULC got that great job, and none of them had mag cum
laude, I believe.
No question there is a risk. The question is whether you dare to take that
risk.

if LZ's 1st semester GPA is around median, big law 1L summer offer is gone.
if LZ's 1st year GPA is around median, big law 2L summer offer is gone,
which means big law post-graduation offer is gone, too.
that's why many American law students quit law school after the Oct of their
2nd year -- if they don't get a 2L summer offer by the end of the On-Campus
Interviews in the first 2-3 months of their 2nd year, there is no point to
continue law school, because the rest of their investment will be wasted
anyway.
it's the biggest problem with US JD education. about 15 law schools are
currently being sued for class action. law school tuitions were like $800/
yr 20 yrs ago? nowadays, considering the overly, overly high tuition bills,
you either get that big law job, or your future income will not justify the
investment.

georgetown是一等法学院的排最后的了,历史上来说是不错的了,尤其是处于dc地区最
好的了
如果没有身份,就像其他人说的,要么搞到高工资的,要么啥都搞不到,因为中间的什
么政府部门法庭之类的没身份基本没戏
那么具体就是你有多大机会搞定高工资的职位了,这谁都不知道,决定于你和当时市场
情况,你自己你可以控制,市场就没法控制了,知道2008年的情况有gtown毕业了是搞
定了大所的职位,但是不幸市场迫使律所裁员,所以就做了2年吧离开。
处于安全考虑,你要想好如果这种情况出现怎么办,有没有backup plan,不管是回国
还是留在这里,都可以,但是要想好出路,或者没想好出路,毕竟很多事情都不能计划
,那也没关系,但是至少心理上准备好了能随机应变

I'd take the JD over biostat any time of the day.
Assuming future earning potential is the largest factor in your decision:
The only good exit for biostats are med school after you've worked in the
industry for some time. But there's no guarantee you will get into a med
school. (Assuming you're an average med school applicant, without knowing
more about you)
You sound like a smart guy and should do average or better at Gtown. Then
your chance of making biglaw is very high. Yes it's a bigger investment,
but it also comes with almost-guaranteed higher return.
I don't think this board is mean. We're just brutally honest to people with
overly optimistic about their future. And I don't think you're one of them.

I really appreciate all the insightful input and compassionate advice for my
problem. It has been a hectic week with much, maybe too much,
heartwrenching soul searching. Unfortunately, I do not think it is a
fiscally feasible choice for me to go to law school at the moment without
bankrupting my family or jeopardizing their future financial security.
I have never had any doubt that I have the intelligence and dilligence
necessary and conducive to succeeding in the legal profession, and yet
sometimes one also has to come to terms with the cold hard fact that
intelligence is not the only determinant in life.
A very special person in my life once said to me, "You grow more resilient
with every passing moment in which u haven't given up. Take comfort in Time'
s healing hand." I am, and I believe, eventually, I will.
Much thanks to you all.

GT 30%到大所,所以楼主要确保在30%之内。作为国际学生,也许还要再比30%前一些。
这个不是容易的事。不过LSAT成绩可以作为一个很好的衡量指标,如果是拿大额或全额
奖学金进去的,那估计是在median score之前的。如果要自己给钱,那基本是在靠
median score或者之下的范围之内了。那要追到30%之内,是要脱层皮的,毕竟老外也
有认真读书的,尤其愿意读law school又明知就业市场怎么玩的。所以选择一个相对经
济安全的option,也合理。

JD, even a Georgetown JD, is no guarantee of a higher return on investment.
The market is far more competitive than a few years ago. The so-called
Biglaw jobs are nearly twice (if not more) as hard to get now. Med school is
a much safer option.
Too many people are dazzled by the high starting salary offered by certain
Biglaw jobs. The fact is that if you don't get one of those jobs (which are
to a large extent, depending on your luck and your first-year grades), your
prospect tend to be limited (e.g., making less than 60k a year with a
demanding schedule). Just like when the stock market peaks, when most people
think an option is great, it is usually already too late.

Go for GULC. If you can't get a job after first year, then quit and go back
to biostat. So for only a year's time and $30-$40K,you get a shot at a good

选你喜欢的专业。钱真的不需要看得太重。人生苦短,开心就好。
如果你都没有太喜欢,就选law school。法学院上升的空间还是很大的,而且从业的范围比较广,读个Biostat也不过就是接着做tech,之后想求发展,还是得读个MBA一类的。当然,你从GULC出来,去Big Law应该很容易。但我觉得你不需要盲目迷信Big Law,没去Big law的人也都好好地,如果你看重的是钱,自己开小所有钱的有得是,一抓很多把。(见过一个做malpractice的女的,一个官司赢了,估计律师费就赚了有八百万,也不是名校的,也不是大所的。)而且,你也不见得就会喜欢做公司法或者专利法一类的东西。不需要在上学之前,就定性自己想做啥,反倒会限制自己。

for bio/chem IP prosecution, a JD without PhD or master or significant field
experience is less likely to be hired than a PhD without JD but with
slightly IP law experience such as a tech tranfer internship.
And the job market for bio/chem IP is not good at this moment. EE/Computer
is pretty good. But money-wise, why a law firm not a tech company if one is
an engineer? The driving force of the society is still engineers/
entrepreners, not lawyers.
"Chinese" student, do you mean race? At least on the table, it does not
matter.
Do you mean language? English matters here. Chinese is just a plus.
Or do you mean a Chinese citizen without PR or citizenship? Then another
hurdle to jump over, H1B visa.
At the end, it all depends on you.
And honestly, it is too early to think about Berkely before you get an offer
from them. It is very competitive to get in.

同学,其一,不是牛校的,就不表示彻底是外行啊。其二,随便灌水一句是针对DANIELSD,因为我说他偷换概念,他说不是跟我argue的,这是个信息论坛,不需要我也不想伤和气。我们学校11年毕业的两个女生都是当年就找到工作的,当然不是大所,但都找到自己想做的工作。其中一个女生还是在异地找到工作的。我们学校是regional school。
生活中很多common sense的东西,大家也并意识不到的,呵呵。现在在上Negotiation的课,就是这么个感觉。楼主的情形,我确实是会如我之前那么分析的。但个人的感觉而已。楼主肯定是risk aversion type的,要是我,根本不会来问建议。我是转行的,在选之前,做过很多research,但是选定之后,就没有后悔过。我之前也说了,楼主如果钱是concern的话,能拿到GULC的offer,就很可能拿得到George Washington的半奖,或者American University的全奖。这样的话,先期投资就是零了。
生物统计的硕士就是个tech degree,上升空间非常有限。长远来看,并不划算。但是如果喜欢,真的未尝不可。我以前就觉得,如果我可以一直能甘心地在实验室做试验,待着其实也蛮好。我同事老板关系处得特别好,每天挺开心的,也颇混到几篇文章。
在美国有个JD学位,可以做的事情很多,不管是从职业发展的上升空间还是赚钱能力的
上升空间比生物统计的硕士还是高多了。
这版上经常发言的,大抵都是在大所做的,其实,在真实生活中,在中小所或者自己做
的很多。在纽约自己开所的真的有得是。NJ的一个Vanderbilt毕业的中国人,开个移民
