BA22:
It's fairly intense

You would simply not have a social life, haha

costargh:
Would any one person actually utilise all those degrees at one time?
Eg.
10am Brain Surgery

2pm Doing the rounds at the hospital

6pm Meeting with corporate clients seeking legal advice

Just a note that you must be actually be accepted into Med/Surg, applying for the law component at the end of your first year of the med course.

It is also academic suicide :P

I think it would only ever be useful to do get taste of both fields, and then decide on one profession and stick with it as soon as possible. You can't be both a doctor and a practicing lawyer at the same time.

You will be better at one of the fields and when you know which one that is, you ought to specialize in that field.

All individuals are different, but once you know that you will go into a certain profession, then it no longer, in my view, makes any sense to spend an extra 3/4 years and $$$ to undertake another degree.

I met a med/law guy at the law students introduction night.

He told me that he started med, found the work far too easy and relaxed, and therefore decided to take up law "for fun".

BA22:
