ive heard you can go into banking, industry, etc. but not sure about the specifics.
U can become a Personal Assistant i've heard. Banking- Legal Advisor.. u dont make any decisions but just advise on legal matters for the bank/firm.
Essentially, that does still entail 'practicing law' [putting your expertise to use, constructively]; but in a more oblique sense. Furthermore, many prefer the job security, and absence of 'limelight': there is no dearth of astute, legal minds that lack the level of command or 'stage-presence' necessary to advocate but are, nevertheless, loathed to resign themselves to academia.

whoops sorry the title is misleading , but i meant careers other than being a lawyer.
Profesh is correct (once you've understood what he's trying to say).
Legal-related jobs? In-house lawyer, advisor to government bodies etc.
Non-legal related? Management/finance/journalism etc. The perceived difficulty of a law degree itself is attractive to many employers in industry as are the analytical and language skills that you develop.

You can also be a legal academic if you want to (thats what im thinking of doing)

yea he is, just got what he was saying.
My vernacular speech does inherit many of its traits, yes; although it also boasts several less formal ones [use of the word 'cool'; among others]. So 'more normal' would be a fair appraisal; even if it is still, relatively speaking, somewhere beyond the standard deviation.

could you reply to the question with just a yes or no.

Are you hoping to practice law?
Which: me; or Ramroff?
I thought I'd give it a shot: if I take to the subject (as I hope I will) then we'll see about securing a 2:1 and a TC somewhere nice; if not, I'll likely transfer to an English course. I feel I owe it to myself at least to try: as I call it, English is the proverbial 'easy option'; and I'd prefer to at least test the deep end, before resigning myself to the shallow. Can't be doing with those 'what if's.
