Hey guys

i am thinking about going into Law instead of IT but just thinking and i have some questions.So..

1.What do you do in law school in terms of course work and stuff?my mom told me it was a lot of reading and i dont mind.

2.What are the different categories of law(criminal,corporate etc)?

3.What is the average salary of a lawyer working for the government these days?I wont open a private practice until later on,so that is why i am asking.

Basic stuff for now i guess.

Thanks.
