playtime -“Poppa, let me be clearer.
My Shver is a Lawyer. He is encouraging me to go to Law school: he will pay the tuition, and let me join his firm (very large and reputable firm). Hence, I don’t have the problems that many have.”
I’m not in the legal field, but I have friends who are. You don’t have the problems of those legal students and/or lawyers above. Ignore what they said. You have a job at the end, not like them.
You can get a degree from Rutgers with BTL and if you’re in NY some say Fordham.
“My question is,
How do I know I can handle the workload?
And how do I know I can make it through with decent grades?”
Your real question is can I be lazy and still make decent grades to pass like I’ve done in Yeshiva?
And the answer is No. You will actually have to buckle down and work. Knowing this – most Yeshiva guys do fine.
Also, it helps Yeshiva guys to take English courses beforehand either in a college or outside of one.
