In order to be accepted to a law school You need to take the LSAT, but in order to take it you must provide a social security number, being illegal, i don't have one.

I'm a junior high school student, you need to be finished college to take it (Please don't say that by that time there will be immigration reform) and have a BS.

So I'm wondering, how can a finished illegal college student take the LSAT?

That's inaccurate. You DO NOT need a social security number to take the LSAT. Register w/ LSAC online and don't provide a number. You can also email LSAC and ask them for a 999 number which is a SS replacement for the LSAT and law school applications. They'll give you one. DO NOT claim that you are a US citizen or resident on your applications or you'll get dinged when the bar reviews your application. I'm in law school on full scholarship. Apply to private schools.

I took the LSAT w/o a social and showed my passport for ID. No issues.

Comments: Hello, some law schools are requiring I furnish a social
security number -- I currently do not have one. I am told the LSAC will
furnish me with a 999 number to use. How do I go about obtaining this
number? Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for your prompt reply. One more question, can this number
be used for all law school applications in place of a SS number? i.e.
can / should I enter it where Law schools ask for a SS number? Or
should I only provide it to a university when they ask for a nine
digit SS replacement?

Thank you.

You've got a detailed reply on becoming a lawyer, so I'll just discuss the physician question.
Most colleges recommend you major in pre-med as an undergraduate; that means you take a lot of science courses such as biology and physics. You take the MCAT - Medical College Aptitude Test - and if you do very well, you get into medical school, which is 4 more years. When you graduate, you are an MD but you must spend 1 -2 years as an intern, working in a hospital 10-12 hours a day for low pay, observing senior doctors as they work. Then you choose a specialty and become a resident doctor in your specialty; depending on the specialty that can be 2-4 years. The total years of study and training is 12-15 years before you practice medicine on your own.
