Yikes, I never meant for this to get personal. I’m sure you are aware that blue books are rarely used, but that you referred to it at all led me to believe that you were not in touch with what law school is like nowadays. I guess I was wrong. I’m not going to answer for my generation’s aversion to pen and paper because I didn’t exactly create this culture, and also I believe that the courtroom will adapt to computers and ipads etc.
As for Dershowitz, I’m assuming he wasn’t too into learning a sugya b’iyun and for some reason I doubt he will endorse a yeshiva education.
I believe what I said was poorly phrased. I don’t mean that you shouldn’t worry about a lack of writing skills in the future, rather you shouldn’t worry about a lack of previous formal education in undergrad.
I believe you are taking my advice as a slight on you undergraduate education. I mean no such thing. Was there even yeshivas offering BTLs when you went to law school? It is quite possible that it was absolutely necessary for you.
And you’re right, I don’t know everything,and I could be wrong. But this is simply L’aniyas daati my advice, that for the OP to go to an undergraduate school would be a waste of time and money nowadays.
