im planning on law/med sci at uts just coz i love medical science, and it was my first carreer option. but im undecided if i sholud do law/international studies, coz i really wanna work on a national and international stage
should i go with mmy passions of med sci or stick with my ambitions in international studs?
does it matter? coz any law student should be aware of the world around him/her right?
Hi Mr Eazy,
I can understand your difficulty in deciding as it is particularly difficult to choose exactly where you want to 'end up' at your current stage.
I would not be too concerned with the work load involved with a law/med science degree. It's very manageable particularly if you are passionate about medical science. You will find it a rewarding experience.
Congratulations on having a desire to be aware of international and national issues - it certainly is encouraged by law firms in particular. I am not familiar with the international studies course but I dare say that it is not necessary to have a formal degree in that specific area to be aware of the important issues. If you are leaning towards medical science, this should not stop you from pursuing extra-curricular activities to pursue an interest in international or national law. For example, see the Monash International Law Students Association:

Best of luck!
David
