Hi, I’m looking for some guidance I was first fixated on studying law at university however, I attended a lecture and the demands to become a lawyer are so off putting. I’m not sure if I value the career so much to the extent I spend endless hours a day and slave myself to become a lawyer. Then I was thinking a political science degree or international relations. I attended SOAS and QMUL and the international relations degree sounds so interesting!! However, I have no clue on what careers I can do with this kind of degree, many people say that’s IR degrees are pointless and I really need a secure job after university otherwise my parents won’t be happy. IR sounds so interesting and I could do a law conversion course if I wanted to but deep down I know that I won’t be able to afford law and I don’t want to slave away my life to it. Does anyone have any tips or experience within these sectors and do you know any good careers that can come from and international relations degree? Thank you
