I think if you had done enough research, you would know where to start. My point of saying that isn't to be disrespectful. I want to encourage you to be positive you want to get a JD before you get started. You should know about the schools you want to attend (admissions statistics, cost of attendance, employment statistics). You should know about the job you want after law school (your first job is likely to be confined to NJ).
In case my instinct was wrong, here is where you start:
- Decide what year you want to start law school. I think being L'22 is possible, but you're probably going to get your application in later. The disadvantage of that scholarship pots and admission spots are less abundant later in the admission cycle. If you're cool with L'23, then you have more time.
