The number of applicants to the nation’s nearly 200 law schools is up 20.5% compared with last year. Georgetown law alone received 14,000 applications to fill 650 spots, while the University of Michigan Law School now has more applications than at any point in its 166 years of existence.

It might be bc during COVID public health was at risk, young People wanted to be doctors to help. Now the rule of law is at risk, young People want to be lawyers to help... or at least I hope it's the case.

There’s no jobs - there will be fewer jobs once all the gov layoffs settle and the recession kicks in.
And if you had a job path lined up likely the regime has blown it up by fucking with funding.
