Answer 1

I'm a lawyer.  By the time you're old enough to go to law school, it will probably cost about $150,000 to go to a bad school (it's already over $100,000).  Before you make such a financial commitment, get a job at a law firm and see what the profession is like from the inside.  It's not what you see on TV.  A lot of lawyers are really, really unhappy they became lawyers.  Don't be one of them.

Also, if you can't get into a top school, don't go.

Answer 2

a video game tester or a video game designer

Answer 3

Yes that's great...good for you...good luck...just remeber that being a lawyer means you are protecting the truth...

Answer 4

The other postee had some great tips to perhaps try to observe and/or talk with some lawyers in the field as it really isn't so cut and dried like on those court shows :)  For general career information:  http://www.bls.gov/oco and can search 'lawyers' or whatever other career that piques one's interest.

On a slightly different note, please continue being a great student (as it sounds as though you are very motivated :) and steer clear of reckless behaviors to fit in' or self-medicate such as using inhalants ("huffing" fumes or gas) which can cause brain tissue loss, limb spasms, seizures, bone marrow (fatty inner lining of bones that makes blood cells) damage, other organ damage and even death after "just" one time -- 'the choking game' which can cause a stroke ("brain attack"), seizures and death -- a 'water drinking contest' which can result in water intoxication from sodium/salt depletion thus causing swelling of body tissues including the brain -- and/or 'car/truck surfing'.
