Well regarding my employment issues, I'd rather to work inside any company than any big law firm since from my experience big name law firms are actually filled with a lot of stupid people that I can't stand and they are con artists who spend all day long thinking of new ways on how to get money from their clients, my job search is mostly company oriented. Also you mention being in debt as a problem, fortunately that is not the case since my university (Central University of Venezuela) is public, so my tuition fees for every year we're less than a cup of coffee, in November I'm taking the admission test for post-graduate studies (also a big problem since I haven't chosen one from 5 in my mind), I don't think I should have any problems getting in and it would look very good on my application for the Australian National University where I want to study International Law (that one is definitively gonna leave in debt), if I go to Australia I would freeze whatever post-grad studies I'm taking here because it would be sort of a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Now all of this sounds very good but I can't stop wondering what my life would be as an engineer, mostly because when I chose law school it was tied with engineering, I had no real reason for choosing it over engineering or sports journalism (mostly engineering), now I think it's too late, because I already graduated and maybe I lost my talent for it (I did miserably in math and physics in high school but it was mostly because I didn't care and I find high school unnecessary, we should all go to college when we finish the sixth grade).
So anyway, that's a more detailed description of my situation.
