I would recommend not going going to law school unless you want to practice law. There are some threads here comparing law school and business school. Take a look.

I think it really depends on what you want to do. I applied to Northwestern's JD-MBA program and am starting this fall. From my research and networking with the class, half of NU's students will stay on the business side while half will follow legal pursuits. My intention is the former.

I haven't begun classes yet, obviously - but am happy to be a sounding board if you needed.

What are the age demographics like in JD/MBA programs? Law school applicants tend to be ~22, whereas MBA applicants tend to be ~27.

NU's JD-MBA program has an average student age of 27 or 28. It's a little unique from the regular law program in that the school actually looks for more mature candidates with work experience. They (admissions) really focus on understanding WHY you need BOTH degrees to fulfill your career path.

This is the only school/program I applied to based on what I learned, so I'm not sure about age in other JD-MBA programs...
