JAG, CIA job help?

I'm currently in law school and trying to figure out what do do with my life. My goal is to eventually be an attorney for the CIA. How difficult is it to get this position directly out of law school? One in a thousand? I have an accounting degree and I'm a CPA which should help. Also I'm considering joining the JAG for the first three and a half years after I graduate. I know this will help for applying to the CIA afterwards, but how much will it help? I've heard after being an officer in the JAG it is somewhat easy to get a law position for the CIA. Any other advice to help get a law position for the CIA would be helpful. ThanksJAG, CIA job help?
i am probably wrong but i thought that positions in JAG were by appointment. you would have to enlist in the navy first and hopefully get into OCS and then get an appointment to JAG.

call me crazy but is that the options you are looking for?

you may have a better chance going the foreign service route with the department of state unless you are really wanting to be in the service(active and then active reserve minimum 10 years).



EDIT:

it seems you have a pretty good handle on it. i would imagine a lot will have to do with school as getting a job with any large firm does. excel in school and you will get noticed.

i think i would go the foreign service route myself but that is due to family having done the same so i am biased.
