&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial&quot;&gt;Does law school do a good job of training students for &amp;#8220;real-life careers&amp;#8221;? Not really, says a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.carnegiefoundation.org/publications/pub.asp?key=43&amp;amp;subkey=618&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;report&lt;/a&gt; published by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. Law schools are better suited to produce &amp;#8220;competitive scholars&amp;#8221; than to prepare lawyers for the day-to-day practice of serving real clients. Critical of the over-emphasis on the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2sMJwxLd-M&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Socratic Method&lt;/a&gt;, whose goal is to get students to &amp;#8220;think like lawyers,&amp;#8221; the report highlights the under-development of practical, social and ethical skills&amp;#8212;tools that might actually prepare students to &lt;i&gt;be&lt;/i&gt; good lawyers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
