有心想申请读IP,一直听说法学院的名次特别重要,好像大家嚷嚷着都是至少要读top
20的。 当然,能读到最好。 但我也听说对于专利法律师,学校名气不象做一般辩护律师
那么重要(我是想做写写弄弄的,不想去上庭侃侃而谈)。另一方面,学校差一点,同样
的LSAT考分是不是拿到至少部分奖学金的可能就会大一点,而对于我这样的穷学生,这个
还是很有吸引力的。
所以想问一下大家的想法,你们是怎么看待学校或者专业排名的。顺便问一句,大家都是
准备或者已经自己花钱(或者贷款)读law的吗?
谢谢你的讨论和建议。

So many people going to law school now. Is it really easy for non-GC holders
to find a job?

要做IP关键的还是你的tech background
和JD program是否重视IP好像关系基本没有
JD主要应该还是培养你的法律思维写作方面的素质

Case 1: Bio/CS/EE/Chem PhD, 1 yr of patent drafting experience, passed the
patent bar, law school ranking top 30
Case 2: Bio/CS/EE/Chem BS or MS, no patent experience, never looked at patent
bar, law school ranking top 10
If you are the hiring partner, which one will you hire for $120K??
Rationale: In IP, $$=Experience+Technical Expertise+Law School Ranking. If
you are short on one, you have to trump it with the other two. If you are
short on two, you have to really really pump up the last one

Case 1: PhD 6 yrs + 1 yr experience + JD 3 yrs = 10 yrs.
Case 2: MS 2 yrs + JD 3 yrs = 5 yrs.
If Case 2 could find an IP attorney job somewhere, which I assume is quite
possible if he/she passes patent bar during the 3 years of JD study, and make
good grades in a top school, then within 5 years (difference between Case 1
and 2), he/she sure can reach a better position than a fresh graduate of Case
1.

if you are not GC holder, I personally think it's a bad move to go for law
school. It's like trying to run while not being able to walk.
patent bar needs 180-200 hours preparation time on average. Sure one can spare
some time during the first summer to take it. If one thinks it's too much of a
burden, he/she shouldn't come to law school in the first place.
and many Chinese students I know have great grades in top law schools. Some
made law review, others graduated with honor. Most top law school

I got your point.
Although many suggestions said, go for a patent agent or technical writer
position first. I personally don't think it's quite possible for a none GC

sponsored by a patent related company. Even for patent agent, they ask for

everybody will give you an opinion, but you gotto find out the one that works
for you the best. from what you said, an MS does not really give you an edge
on the technical side, especially if you are compared with PhDs (they have
much more technical writing experience, and credits). And you won't have the
patent-related experience, so the only card you can play is top ranking
schools, which is hard to come by.

I'm still at school for Ph.D, and I just finished an intern at a big
pharmaceutical company. It's this summer's experience confirmed my thought for
law school. I saw people with master degrees working without credits, I saw
people with Ph.D working without enthusiasm, and I also saw people dreaming
for more.
If I can't go for law school next fall, probablly, I will finish my Ph.D
first.
Thank you for your suggestions.

There are two kinds of EAD. If you get the EAD during your OPT period, then
your EAD must clarify the field that you can work in (must be related to your
major). If you get the EAD after filing I-485 petition, the EAD has nothing
and doesn't restrict what type of job you work in (basically in terms of
"capacity of employment", it is equivalent to having a green card).

That is so not true. Most companies will not hire people who stray away from
their original career for research or technical jobs. Once you decide to go
to B-school or Law school, the only way is to continue in the management or
law practise. Actually, I know a lot of people having difficulties finding
a job just because they did a postdoc not in the specific area they want to
find a career in.
