But the contrary advice: go if you want, regardless of the caliber of school, leads to even more unhappy, and not highly credentialled lawyers.

Huh? The people I know who are happiest and most successful in their fields of law went directly from third-tier schools to government offices or public interest and have never set foot in a downtown BIGLAW office, even for a depo. Of course, they graduated in the days before universities saw law school tuition as a profit center.
The most miserable are the ones who went to first-tier schools and were dedicated to public interest/enviroplaintiff work, but had a fateful date with a calculator and their mail sometime before 3L.
