Hi all, I'm looking for some advice as to which degree to choose/career to go into. I'm currently doing AS Levels in Law, Business, French and Maths. I've not really been liking law but really liking business. Maths is ok, I like some topics more than others (surds are fun haha). I love the maths we do in business though (profit and loss accounts, budgeting 😍).
I took french to improve my grammar and widen my vocabulary but I'm already quite conversationally fluent (my ex spoke only french, my mum is french, spent holidays in france with french family) albeit not perfect or even good enough to say work a job exclusively in french. Although I'd really love to work in Paris someday and I have french nationality so I'd be set if I could find a good job there.
I got straight As at GCSE and predicted As at AS so I guess you could say I'm a high achiever academically. Basically I'm not sure what to go into though. I want to end up with a well paying professional job, definitely no crazy hours though (I work to live!) and with flexibilty to move to France and still have a job in my chosen sector.
I'm interested in possibly being a solicitor, or an accountant or maybe a financial adivisor. A degree where I could qualify in both the French and English professions would be ideal. I know KCL has such a degree for Law but I have no idea for finance sectors. Basically looking for some advice from current law and finance graduates. What are you doing now? What does your job entail? How much do you earn? Do you like your job? What are your hours like? Is the job market really competitive? Are there opportunities to move abroad? Do I seem more suited to a law or finance career?
I know this has been very long and apologise, but thank you so much for reading if you've gotten this far! Hope some people out there might be able to help! If there are any other forums you think might be relevant or could help me out please feel free to link below!
