Why, What, Where,

She needs to ask herself 

Why does she want to study law or become a laywer?  Is this an LLM or JD?  

What does she want to do with a law degree?  What area of law interests her?

Where does she want to be a lawyer?  CA, NY, DC, Chicago, etc. 

BTW, Vanderbilt is not T14, and the location is not ideal, so she can skip that.
