Lit Major, planning on going to law school. From what I hear, expected salary for the area of law I want to go in is about $140-160k plus yearly bonus ($25-80k). Of course I'll have the wonderful enjoyment of working 70+ hours h:

u gotta start somewhere....also, realize that this isnt the best time for new grads.

it annoys me when i interview fresh grads, expecting $50-60k with no relative experience.
