    I used to sleep at 6am in my last year in uni just because I would only have one long break which was the morning instead of lots of small breaks. Biggest mistake! I can't believe I disrespected my body like that. Your videos are really inspiring btw. I'm also due to start my course in 2021. Using your videos as . I know it's gonna be harder than my masters but it's going to be worth it.

    • @liam.porritt
      @liam.porritt  5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Well there are set schemes with law firms when you get to university, so I would definitely recommend applying for those! However, before that, you should actively try and find lawyers, especially at smaller firms, by looking online at firms in your area and also trying to connect with people on LinkedIn. Go out of your way to speak to any lawyers you can possibly come into contact with - for example, my parents are teachers and knew a school parent who was a lawyer and asked him if he would speak to me for 30 minutes on the phone... that led to a week’s work experience. Everyone has the ability to actively pursue conversations with lawyers, so hunt down those opportunities, be inquisitive when chatting to the lawyer and experience may well come from that 🤗

    Question: Anyone who should absolutely not become a lawyers
    Answer: trait fo someone who should be a lawyer
    Only listened to half the question there buddy 😂

    • @JagjitBrawler
      @JagjitBrawler 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I think he listened to the whole question but he just put it in a way which wouldn't make people who are incredibly unorganized both in actions and in thoughts (i.e. people like me lol) feel bad about themselves and so that he's not discouraging any particular type of person from going into law. So, to map his answer back to the original question: People who should absolutely not become lawyers are people who are disorganized in their actions and/or thinking.
      EDIT: Also, I must add: framing an answer in a way that is not directly answering the question (since doing so might result in negative consequences) while still getting the point across is a very lawyer-y thing to do so you know he's good at this job xD

I'm considering pursing corporate law because of that and also because I love big companies and bussinesses. But I might also Pursue a master's in social work.....Not sure just seeing where life takes me. I cant decide but then again I can have both. why not ?

    • @mikaila5652
      @mikaila5652 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there! I'm not a lawyer, currently an undergraduate student about to attend law school in the fall. The common consensus is that you should get an undergraduate degree in what interests YOU. I've met corporate attorneys who have had undergraduate degrees in theatre or English. I personally am double majoring in General Management and Marketing. From what I have heard, you learn majority of what you'll be doing as a corporate attorney specifically when being trained at your job. (Obviously having a background somewhat related to business can always help). But the most important aspect is to choose a degree you enjoy because your GPA is weighed heavily when applying to law schools. Choose a degree that you would study if law wasn't in the picture. If that means you enjoy economics and could see yourself working in economics regardless of law school then go for economics!

      Hi Ian! Not at all - there are tons of people from unis all over at every firm, including the Magic Circle firms! My biggest advice would be to try and get legal work experience and vacation schemes or even experience doing pro bono work through uni - basically anything to show to care enough to have gone out of your way to try and become a lawyer!! 🤗

      Hey Darnell, I think the biggest piece of advice I can give you is to try and talk to lawyers / meet up with lawyers / find work experience / events about law + read about law. Generally, you need to be doing anything you can to show that you are genuinely interested in the law, as this will come across in any personal statements / applications you do! I'd also recommend doing as much practice as you can for whatever admissions test you'll have to take! Hope that helps and good luck 🤗
