I think i'll consider doing the commerce and economics rather then the law for the same reason you did, I really dont want theinefficence of saying i've done lw then never using it, I love statistical analysis and hope to combine my passion for calculus and economics through a commerce + economics course.danielvh said:My ideal job is management consulting for one of the large international firms such as Mckinsey or Bain etc. I wouldn't want to do IB at all. The work looks stressful and uninteresting to me (but that's just me of course).
I have no idea whether 5 majors is better than law/commerce. The reason why law is valued in the business world is that it shows that you're able to complete an academically challenging degree and have developed certain skills such as analytical skills and written/verbal skills. Decent marks in econs/commerce (distinction average +) would show the same things if presented to employers correctly in my opinion. Personally, I'm doing economics/commerce because I'm interested in a lot of different things in both fields. Originally I was doing Law/Commerce but found I had no interest in law.
Anyway, I'm off to sleep. Attending a seminar given by Vernon Smith (2002 winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics) at 7am tomorrow morning![]()
Looks like i'll just have to work through uni
Thanks for the clarification, just have to look at some more careers now
