I thought for it to be a true paralegal you had to at least have the certificate? Otherwise it's only a legal secretary? I have a friend who is a paralegal and he has a high level of education. I have another friend who is a legal secretary and she only has her HS diploma. I would consider how much you want to be paid in the field...typically higher education will get you higher pay. You also want to think to the future as you rise in the field.
