there are a ton of recent threads on this subject. you should do a search from them.
if you are honestly thinking about the joint degrees, send me a pm and i will talk to you about it.
i am halfway done! thankfully... i finished 2 years of med school and then went off to law school.
there are only a few programs worth going to (duke, penn, stanford, chicago, etc.) the other option is to go to med school and law school in different places. more than anything, go to the best law school you can get in.
