Hi @i.dont.know!

Nearly 50% of practising lawyers have done a law conversion course rather than an LLB in law so there is absolutely no reason why you would not be able to become a corporate lawyer. In fact, having a business degree may give you a boost in your application process as you will be able to show a potentially greater knowledge in the field compared to a law student :smile:

Good luck!

Hello!! Wow I’m exactly the same as you… I’m wanting to branch off too into law once I’ve completed my business course! I was thinking of swapping up criminology but I think business will give so many more opportunities. :smile:

good luck!

One of my friends did a Business degree and the conversion course is now a criminal lawyer.
