I have been in nursing school for a while, but my calling has always been to be a Lawyer.
I have no clue where to start. What degree do you need to get an assc. then bach, then onto law school??

You need a bachelors degree. Since you must have a bachelors degree (BA or BS), forget about the associate step. You're going for an advanced degree, the JD. There is no point of a stopover before the Bachelors. Whatever undergraduate degree you pick will do. You can probably use some of your nursing classses and have the credits transferred, but not all. Nursing is a technical degree, not a Liberal Arts degree. To get into law, you need either Engineering (especially if you later want to be an IP lawyer) or any Liberal Arts degree. The favorites are English, Political Science, Math, History, Economics. Think that you want to devop both language skills and logical reasoning skills. Any work experience will help your application, plus an excellent GPA in your undergraduate degree, and a high LSAT score. by the way, get a practice test for the LSAT and bust your ***, doing practice tests. Good luck! You probably have good peopple skills for having considered nursing. Put that in your application. There are too many boarish lawyers out there.
