sage14 1,945 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I'm not in uni, but I have law as a course for my A levels (UK version of college), and it's already pretty horrible. My sister just finished her law degree and she was miserable all through the process though so good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latte 1,077 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 i was thinking of maybe doing law (i go to uni next year) but people who actually do the degree seem like they're bored the whole way through.. i wanna spend 4-5 years doing something i'm passionate about, not something i'm scraping through just to maybe get a nice payslip at the end.

Eh, it's all a matter of perspective... you can be very passionate about law imo, but I think it's good to have a realistic idea of what studying law entails. There's a lot of stuff that could be found boring by some I guess, and some of it is - you'll have certain subjects you dislike with any education - but for me I really love it honestly. I definitely wouldn't do it just because it'll pay well (sometimes it doesn't). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooh nice! Especially that you're interested in Gaelic, that's really meaningful it's good there are people still interested in learning traditional languages, so they won't be forgotten. That would be a shame. Good luck! I'm Dutch so I did French and English t'was nice! My French is very good now, even saying so myself haha. I learnt more than I did in 6 years of high school.

I learnt more than I did in 6 years of high school. yeah it's only the really remote parts of scotland that speak it now, but it's not the mother tongue anymore, everyone speaks english... it's sad, but it would be magic to be able to speak it!! and oh my gosh, your english is so good!!! i'm really hoping i learn tons of french when i go off to university, i'm doing a special project class on it this year so i'm really hoping it will improve my practical skills in speaking the language (i am great at exams, but not so good at the spontaneous speaking...)

I feel like a social life + university don't match. protip: reading case law in is important, but use what general counsels actually use. practical law, pli, law firm client alerts (via mondaq), etc. and bar prep materials are also good for learning the basics. You can expound on exams once you know what IS (vs what should be/how it came to be). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
