2.1.2) What else should I do to prepare for law school?

Whatever appeals to you. Some sort of work experience is usually your
best option.

2.1.2.1) What type of work experience best prepares someone for law school?

With the possible exception of legal work experience, no particular
type of work experience prepares you for law school better than any
other. On the other hand, there is no work experience that does not
prepare you for law school. The law affects every aspect of modern

experience prepares you for law school.

2.1.2.2) What other kinds of experience prepare someone for law school?

The best kind of experience to prepare someone for law school is
overcoming some sort of personal hardship. Law school can be a
