The pointlessness of a law degree

I agree with some of this article but don't think you could say that completing an LLB can be worse than useless. A lot of modern contract law is based on centuries of case law and it is often important to know the historical basis in order to know why certain clauses are drafted like they are. I often see GDL lawyers modify contractual clauses without realising that they are worded that way for a very specific reason - trust or partnership law is a big one for this.
