I’ve been incredibly fortunate to receive offers for LSE Econs and SMU Law (still waiting on NUS) but I can’t decide which to accept.

Pros of NUS/SMU Law:

Stable path, just need to get FCH or second upper to get a good job
Cheaper than LSE Econs which is 300k
More AI proof???

Pros of LSE Econs:

Overseas experience and much higher earnings ceiling although I question if I can even reach that ceiling
Able to make connections with a much broader group of people to widen my perspective
Target school for IB (not sure if I even want to go into IB because of the hours)
Better exit options out of IB and overall more flexibility
Don’t have to deal with the billable hours bullshit for the rest of my life

Thank you to anyone who can share advice. I’m mainly worried about the economy and whether I can find a job as an Econ grad whereas for law employment is much more stable.
