You could apply to paralegal jobs. That's the route I took, and I know many of the paralegals at my firm plan to go to law school. It's a great way to get legal experience and also think about the reasons you actually want (or don't want) to be a lawyer.
I was a paralegal without a certificate. Depends on the firm. Mine taught me everything to be a paralegal in their business, but if I went somewhere else the expectations might be different.
That's what all the paralegals at my firm say. When it actually pertains to the procedural elements of practicing the law, they (paralegals) are much more competent than most attorneys--especially newer attorneys fresh out of law school.
I tried to do this. Personally, it didn't work for me.. (See my discussion thread). In fact, my last day at the firm is tomorrow. Anyhow, I wish you all good luck!

It's definitly worth it OP. I would advocate trying to obtain some sort of exposure to a law firm before going to law school. If you don't like it, it'll save you a lot of money.

I don't know where you are at. But I agree with @emli1000. Maybe redo the curriculum to get a firm understanding of the basics. And focus on problem question types. Furthermore, I think BR is extremely important to improvement. It's helped me immensely.
