I'm starting law school this fall and I'm only going to need to borrow around $50,000/year. At first I was set on just taking the $50k federal unsubsidized loan (because of the income-driven payment plans) but then I got a private loan offer at an interest rate much lower than the federal rate:

5.56% APR on $50k loan. 10 years fixed.

For reference, the federal loan interest rate is 8.07%.

I'm at a T14 law school and am planning on going into big law. Which one do you think I should do?
