- Doctor versus lawyer. Who's smarter? Who's more handsome? Who works harder in school? I brought LegalEagle in to
carry his side of the debate. - Doctor versus lawyer. Winner takes all. - I'll see you in the courtroom. - I'll see you on the operating table. - Peewoop!
- Woopeep! (Mike laughs) - [Producer] Which education is harder, med school or law school? - Law school. - What? No! - Because you went to the easier school. - No, because it's shorter. - The problem with law school is that it doesn't actually teach
you how to be a lawyer. You learn theories of justice. Imagine if in medical school, on day one the professor's like, "Today, we're gonna
tell you about science." It's how a lot of people learn medicine. And then on day two, the professors say, "We already talked about science, but how about intelligent design?" They'd say that the science
people are all wrong. And then a third day they'd say, "Well, some people
disagree with both of those and they just go with mysticism." That's kind of what law school is like. You don't learn the actual subject. You learn theories around the subject. - Med school, four years, three to seven years of post
medical school training, harder to get into,
clinical time, call shifts. I know a lot of legal
students that have time off. Med students don't have that luxury. - Funny you say that med
students have no time off. You had an Instagram account. - I did.
- It was devoted to almost nothing except showing that med students had lots of extra time on their hands.
- No! It was you could use your spare, your limited, highly limited... Frankly, I think you're
badgering the witness. - [Producer] What is
the best part of school? - It's hard for me to think of something because it's so much harder.
- Because you went to a school that's so much easier. (clock ticking) when people's
lives are on the line, you got to really be
able to- (snaps fingers) - Dunking on med students. - You did not! In law school? - Now, having practiced for
years dunking on med students. - But he said, "What's
the best part of school?" I was gonna say cadaver lab. - So, I think that's right. We only get to read about the cadavers and you guys get to actually
work with the cadavers. - I'm glad you used that verb. 'Cause people usually
say play with cadavers and we don't play with cadavers. - In my head, I was thinking play. - [Producer] What is the
worst part of school? - Can I put two things? - I will allow you to put two things. I only needed to put one thing
'cause I follow directions. - 'Cause it's so easy, you
don't have any problem. - Finals. - Oh, true. I was gonna say call shifts or money. I mean, law school is probably
just as expensive, right? - Well, less expensive
because it's only three years. - True. When you're a resident, you're making like $10
an hour for five years, so you're still paying back that debt. - The issue with finals in law school is that almost all of your
grade is based on one test at the end of the semester.
- Oh, that's messed up. - I mean, some schools are different and some schools do grade
participation, some have midterms, but often the participation
might be 10% of your grade, midterm might be 20%, so it's still an overwhelming
majority, the final exam. - [Producer] Where did you go to school? I probably should erase this
'cause this looks messy. - I'm already done. We do learn to write better. UCLA, Baby. - NYIT, like MIT, but in New York. No relation. I wanna hear about UCLA 'cause that's actually a
world-renowned institution. - It is the greatest public
college in the world. I actually went for
undergrad and law school, so I made double Bruin. - [Producer] What happens
with a double Bruin? - This. (laughs) You get a nice suit and you
have your own YouTube channel. Be a double Bruin. - New York Institute of Technology. - Yeah, so I did a bachelor's
and my doctorate degree in a seven-year combined
program in the school. And this is where my dad
went to med school as well. - [Producer] How would you describe your professors in school? - I said aggressive. - I said devoted. They were really about their craft. They would be physically upset
if someone wasn't learning. - I think my law professors
were pretty devoted, definitely cared about students learning, but I think they were
very challenging, too. So they were willing to get in your face, they're really willing to debate, and their passion came
out in the classroom. - Really?
- Yeah. I do remember getting
into a sparring match with my crim law professor. I said something smarmy like, "Well, isn't that just
a semantic difference?" - Oh! - And his response was, "Well isn't everything
a semantic difference? Isn't that why we're here?" - [Producer] How would you
describe your peers in school? - That one's easy for me. - I wanna say something, but I don't want it to come off bad. - Smart.
- Smart. People brought their own
lamps to the library. - Ah! - People were down: chair pads, water bottles that monitor
their fluid intake. They were devoted to spending
hours in the library. - Certainly most of my fellow law students were incredibly studious. But apart from the fact
that they were just devoted to learning the law, it was still the highest concentration of really smart people that
I've ever interacted with. - [Producer] What is one of your fondest specific
memories of school? - Mock trial.
- Oh, that's gotta be fun 'cause you're like half
acting and half being serious. - It's super fun. I did mock trial all
through undergrad at UCLA, which two-time national
champion while I was there. - What does that mean? You're a champion of mock trials? - Yeah. Yeah. - What is that? - It's a competition, like debate. - Grand champion. I'm sitting next to a grand... Do you have a trophy? - Many.
- Wow! Can you imagine people walk
into his room and they're like, "Wow, you must be really good at sports," and he's like, "Nah, debate." (both laugh) - Do you have any trophies
from medical school? - No, they don't give
trophies 'cause it's hard. - [Devin] Third year
wearing dat white coat. - So second year after you finished your last in-classroom year,
there is a white coat ceremony where if you have someone that loves you and they're in the medical field, they can put the white coat over you. My dad was busy, so they- (somber music) Just had some professor at school do it. (both laughing) - [Producer] What was your dad busy doing? - Being a doctor, probably, I dunno. - [Producer] As specific a
figure as you can give me, how much money did you
spend going to school? - I wrote mine in euros. - Oh wow, he said specific. - Yeah. - Well, wait. For three years? Holy moly. - Including cost of living. - Okay, I'm not including that 'cause I lived in my dad's house. - Yeah, I'm probably including
undergrad in this as well. - [Producer] How would you
describe your romantic life while in school? - Is this how you got through
law school? (Devin laughs) - Oh, you're in a serious relationship. "Grey's Anatomy," all the shows, they show so much romance, so much love. I've never felt that
in a hospital setting. I've always was nervous
or worried about learning. I never thought about dating. - I really don't believe you. I'm not saying in relationship, but you had to have thought about it. - I mean, thought about it. Again, in the beginning when it was new.
- Who? Me? - I had a serious relationship
before I started law school and I maintained that relationship through the ups and
downs of all three years. - Is it true that like in
med school, for example, a lot of relationships end and start. - Oh yeah.
- Same thing in law school? - Absolutely, so many
people are getting together. I mean, you're spending every waking hour with the people in your law school. - So people hooked up in your law school?
- Oh yeah. - Maybe we're just like
an anti-social community or maybe I just wasn't
invited to the parties. They were like, "We don't want this guy." - Some people are ugly ducklings. Someday you might be a swan. - Yeah, I'm looking to
spread my wings and fly. (both laugh) - [Producer] What is one
piece of advice you would give to someone starting school today? - I was gonna write "Don't". (laughs) - I think people should go to law school if you wanna be a lawyer. - As opposed to what? - A lot of people go to law school because they don't know what they wanna do when they graduate from- - Really?
- Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's good advice.
- What's finals strategies? - So we talked about
how finals are decided using these issue-spotting exams. And a lot of people think that the way to write a good finals answer is by memorizing as much laws as possible. That's actually really not true. You have to know a lot of the law, but you also have to know how
to write these special exams, and there's a real art and science to it.
- Really? Okay. I was gonna say, take one
test or challenge at a time, because in med school,
you have so many tests, this week, next week. There's a board's first
year, maybe second year, depending when you take it,
third year or fourth year, again, depending on when you take it. When you graduate, there's a board's. When you finish your board certification, there's a board's. If you think about every test that's in front of you on day one, you're just gonna be
filled with so much anxiety that you can't function. - [Producer] Final question, which is harder, med school or law school? (suspenseful music) Oh! (Mike laughs) - Do You see my eagle?
(Devin laughs) If you wanna use this for your
logo, I totally understand. This is so... That's a quality eagle. - I'll get back to you on that. - It's not so much that law
school is harder for me, it's just it's harder to
practice when you're out. You're not prepared adequately. I think med school sounds like you have to learn quite a bit more in terms of the subject area covered. Maybe I'm gonna change
my mind. I don't know. - Look, it's the legal. (caws) You watch TV shows on your channel, right? - I do. - You think there's like
a "Grey's Anatomy" episode that has legal stuff in it? - You think that there's
a medical procedural that doesn't have a
legal malpractice trial somewhere in there? - A real doctor-
- Slash real lawyer. - Will react to" Grey's
Anatomy" because you want it. Tune in soon. - I'll see you in court. - Ooh, medical. (both laugh) (upbeat music)
did destiny ever play a doctor chad video on stream?
