I am very sorry to burst your bubble, but it takes a lot of brains and determination to get through law school. First you absolutely must have a firm grasp of the English language, and even with a spell checker your question is full of errors. If you don't do well in school, why would you want to sign on for 7 or more years of it?
To attain a law degree, first you must earn a Bachelor Degree. Then you have to test into law school and go through three harrowing years. Then you have to prove your competency by passing a bar exam.
If you like the idea of working in law, maybe you should look into other options within the field. If you're just interested in the money, you can find money in a more reachable field.
Try to give yourself an honest assessment. Know your strengths and weaknesses. Chose options that fit with those strengths and weaknesses and be happy. Now that's zen. :)

Navy "A" school is a technical training school for your chosen rating. If you are going to any "A" school for law in the Navy, you are simply going to be what, on the outside, might be a law clerk or paralegal. An "A" school isn't THAT hard, but you will need to make sure you are focused on studying and not partying it up with your fellow sailors:) If you are intending to go into the Navy and hope to be an actual legal officer, you still have to go to college. You can do this while in the Navy, however, which may be better for you...you'll get tuition assistant and lots of experience while you're in school!

I would have to agree with the other response in that: why would you want to put yourself through at least seven more years of school if you are just trying to skate through? Law school and military school are both quite intense experiences, each with their own unique way of forcing you to compete with everyone in the class AND yourself.

My advice would be to ask youself why you want to join the navy and go into law (presumably the Judge Advocate General Corps) and see what motivates you in that direction. Perhaps there is another way to maximize your efforts and your strengths than putting yourself through an experience that you may find quite repulsive.

im in the navy but not in the law section, im in the engineering field but when you join the navy previous experiance really dont count, theyll teach you all you need to know and your hole navy career will consist of training it dont end after a school. and your feild in the navy is also determined by your ASVAB scores. so start studying and good luck...any other questions that you have just email me at FIRSTREDNECK2002@YAHOO.COM and if i cant answer them ill get you the resources
