Law School Graduate Scorecard

• 12.4% No Job
• 27.0% Temporary Job
• 11.0% Part Time Job

The total of those groups is a whopping 50.4%. However, some jobs may be temporary and part-time so the correct total is somewhere between 39.4% and 50.4%, probably towards the high side.

Having a law degree is no guarantee of success. All of those groups will struggle to pay back student debt.
