Question about going to law school.?

We Answered:

this might sound cynical but it's probably more important to get good grades, so I would say don't over-extend yourself.

Edith Said:

College Major Help-10 Points?

We Answered:

I think that your educational goal would be best served by taking philosophy as a minor. Don't lose sight of what you are trying to do. Philosophy can help you to become a better lawyer. You are not going to school to become Confucius.

And keep in mind, the more unnecessary classes you take, the greater the risk on your GPA. The schools you want to attend aren't looking for those who are just making it.

Betty Said:

If you could have one of these careers to pursue?

We Answered:

I don't have a recommendation for you, but I would add:

Food Chemist: The satisfaction of creating a new product may not be as great as you think, because you may have to include additives or ingredients that you don't believe are healthy. The corporation, not the food chemist, makes this decision. I've only actually known one food chemist, and she hated it and left the industry. It's really not at all like being a chef. Especially if you test food, it's more like being an accountant.

Also, I think you are being a little too optimistic about switching careers in chemistry. Employers like specialists -- they don't really like hiring people who are from a related field.

Nursing: Healthcare is one of the fastest growing fields, and is expected to continue to grow for the next 50 years. Nurses make really, really good money. However, in many states they are required to work a lot of overtime, because there just aren't enough nurses to care for all the patients. Nurses work in many different settings, including doctor's offices, schools and sometimes corporations. They can go back to school to become a Physicians Assistant or Nurse Anesthetist. I have known nurses who switched careers to being a medical technician or pharmaceutical sales person with little or no additional training. They can also go into management, hospital administration or teaching.

I think you should be honest with yourself about your personality. Are you going to enjoy a corporate job where you basically do the same thing over and over, being a food chemist? Or, will you enjoy the challenges and variety of nursing (even though it can be hard on the feet & difficult emotionally), feeling you are contributing something worthwhile? And dealing with different situations every day?

You're the only one who can make that decision.

A warning that webpages with references to him have virus attacks and ads that insist on your using anti-phishing software. This is really not an answer but a concern.
