Hi

I was thinking of enroling for the above course at Strathclyde and was wondering is anyone had any experiences of it or opinions about it. I'm really keen to change career into Law but also very aprehensive about doing so at the age of 35.

I realise that by the time i graduate i woud be 38 and then have to look for a traineeship - realistically, would this pose a problem and has anyone heard of someone this OLD starting off in Law?

Hi T,

There was a great American TV series on before you were born. The main character was called Kaz ... he was a reformed criminal and while in Jail studied law, on release he set up a law firm ... ok, a lot of poetic license but I really enjoyed it ... he was 40+ (or the character was).

I'm half way through mine and I'm over 10 years older then you ... giving nothing away ... and I say go for it.

Realistically, is there any other game in town? Medicine, Engineering maybe but The Law beats all, IMHO.

A lot of work, I imagine a lot sycophantacy as you build a career (can you handle it?).

All the best,

Thanks for the positive responses guys. I am pretty determined to do this and am confident i could handle the academic side of things comfortably, it was more the prospects of employment after the LLB that concerned me.
