Linklaters opens summer vacation schemes to non-law students

Comment

@Hello - I wanted to be a lawyer from my early teens. I chose not to study law as my first degree on the basis that there were subjects I loved at A-Level that I wanted to learn more of before starting my career and the conversion course was open to me. I loved my degree, I loved my legal studies afterwards and I'm now a qualified lawyer. No one should be obliged to decide what they want to do with their career at 17 or be penalised for not having made that decision earlier or on the assumption that chosing not to study only law from the age of 18 has something to do with their commitment to being a lawyer.
