I was wondering if it is better to go into law or medicine? I would enjoy both but I am not sure which would be best?

Think of an attorney with emphasis on medicine. You could be both an attorney and a doctor. I think you would pro ably do well at both because you say you like both of the. so you like them. "GO FOR IT"

There will always be "sick" people in the world, and there will always be people who are in need of the law. So, as far as job security goes. . .You'd be just fine.
Medicine is not as easy as most think. . .Most Physicians, believe it or not do not make as much money as their predecessors. Example being. . .A Pediatrician. . . Pediatricians do not make a whole lot of money. . . whereas a Plastic Surgeon is "rolling in the money". . .I think you can understand the difference.
So you graduate from Law school . . . finding a job can be very difficult. . . From what I've heard that particular career is very over saturated. . . But with LOTS of hard work and dedication. . .Nothing is impossible.
You'll need to make the decision yourself. . . It's quite possible for you to job shadow a Physician or a Lawyer. . .You can see how there day is, ask questions, and get a good general idea of what that position is.
Hope this helps!!!!

medicine for sure. it's more rewarding and easier to find a well-paying job. law ... it depends on what type etc but doctors will always be needed..... do whichever you find more interesting and what you could see yourself doing.
doctors have to go through a LOT of schooling--especially if you want to specialize. Law is quite a few years of school but not nearly as many as doctors. They are two very different fields. Think hard before you make a decision. Good luck!

Both are very good careers. I think whatever one you have more interest in and have more opportunities, that is the one you should go into. There are a variety of areas in both fields. Research and figure out what suits you best. You can go far in either one depending on how much time and effort you put into it. I think medicine, depending on the field, will have longer, less flexible hours.

well with law, you can do great in school but have trouble finding a good job since there are so many lawyers out there now,
but with medicine you can never have too many doctors or nurses
so i would say medicine if you have the stomach for that kind of
thing,
good luck in whatever you choose!!!

well, with medicine you get to heal people and with law you either defend or prosecute, decide how you would feel, with either one you can heal/save or not heal/prosecute, so they are pretty much the same - no - I think medicine would be better, but it's really which one you want, good luck

Depends on whether you want to screw people or help them.
