Is history worth it as an aspiring solicitor?
just currently gotten an offer to study history at ucl after countless law rejections from top schools, i applied for law first because i assumed it was the safe route although prior to year 13 i had the amazing opportunity to shadow solidifies, barristers and partners who encouraged me to partake in alternative routes into law. but although ive mapped out my future for the next 5 years as the destination will forever be becoming a solicitor in my desired field of practice!
however, i can’t help but look online and see history students or people drag apart the fundamentals of a history degree and class it as useless? i’m starting to get really worried and wondering to change my course to politics or international relations but what happens if i regret that? and i applied for history because i love it but i might not be cut out for it but i did it anyway because i hate living in regret.
does anyone have any advice that they’d like to share? any information is good information as long as its not misinformation in my books ! thank you
