Do you guys think 25 years old is too old to start law school?
I chose the wrong career and stuck with it because it had good job prospects. Now that I have a bit saved up I'd like to chase what I actually enjoy, but I'd be 30 years old when I finish it. That's really old.

A 70 year old woman graduated bachelors at my uni
If you give a fuck what people think perhaps you shouldnt be a lawyer, you'll have to deal with a lot of criticism

Only kids think 30 is old. Grow up.
Anyway, no. It's not too old. Most students at my uni are in the graduate law program in their late 20s, so everyone is near 30 when they graduate. Do you have a Bachelors degree and a fuckin good GPA? If so, go for it.
If not, work on it. Take independent classes to raise it. It can take a while, but many people older than you have done it. I've seen 45 year olds graduate from medical school.

This is probably going to sound stupid to you but I find common law fascinating (I am not from a common law country). I actually read up on court decisions and general US legal stuff on my free time.

I guess you guys are right here. Not everybody goes to uni so young, I guess.

I am not from the US so that's an added difficulty, since for common law school I'd have to either go to UK or US.
My GPA according to a quick calculator I just googled is 3.2, so quite low I think. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Software Engineering.
