My two cents: if you are from a well-to-do family and can travel without worrying about costs, maybe it’s worth it, despite the hustle. Even if you’re not, it will be challenging, but in the end, attending a good law school, away from your hometown, teaches you a lot, especially if you meet the right kind of people who you can fit in with. They make everything about law school more bearable.
better take a year and aim to earn enough to support yourself, or if you have any high worth skill develop that.
This place will eat you if you go in without a rough goal in mind. if parents are middle class, figure out how to use their money well, or to not use it at all in one year
