So I'm starting uni in September at a good university (UK).

Go read some job reports you literal fucking retard.

I don't plan on being a lawyer if I do a law degree. I'd just do it because I have an interest in law. It teaches extremely useful skills at a very high level too. Plenty of people do a law degree but never practice law.

>go read some job reports
who the fuck does this you sad cunt

comp sci or physics

So you'll have a degree, that's all an employer will see. You still have to bring other value to the table.

>who the fuck does this you sad cunt
People who want to make informed decisions on their future career, but what should I expect from someone who has the great idea of going the most retarded route towards a career.

I don't care what you do, but you need to know how stupid your plan is because you sound like an uppity cunt.

What uni in the UK?

>>1990730
Does UK allow minoring in a subject? If so, I'd major Computer Science and minor Physics. Comp Sci has much more practical day-to-day application and Physics is good for being well-rounded and educated.

Not sure why you say you'd do law in America. I'm an American with a JD. Practiced for a year and realized it's a loser's game. If you don't get into a T14 then you have to get law review your first year or you're fucked. Went to a low-end T50 for a 66% scholarship. Lucky to get a job after passing the bar but it's a total crapshoot if you're not at a larger firm. Paydays are low and you're really rolling the dice on cases. Some are huge pay-outs, others (most of them) are for pennies.

I got a healthcare LLM and transitioned to consulting. I make $162k but I have no life. It's been three years since I've spent more than 14 days in one state. Literally. Saved enough that I'm going to quit this year and set up shop solo.


Long-winded way to say do medicine. There's a shortage of doctors so you're essentially guaranteed employment. The idea that having a JD will make you attractive to other employers is false. Instead, they will question why you have a JD and are not practicing.

Hope this helps.
