Summary: Based on what you discovered about this career, is it still one you think you would like to pursue? Why did you answer this way and what do you expect to get out of this career? (answer should be 2 or more paragraphs long)
This has been a career I wanted to do ever since the fourth grade. This is still the career path I want to take. I answered this way because I always have to be right. I can make people feel stupid and can make people think they have no idea what they are talking about even if they are right. I can lie straight too some body’s face without anybody knowing. If I believe in something, then I convince other people too believe this too.
Everyone always said I would make a great lawyer. Also, I used to watch law and Order SVU and always said I was going to be like them, but in real life. Now that I understand that Law and Order is not real and it is very dramatized, I still want to a lawyer. Maybe even a criminal lawyer. I am also thinking about a divorce lawyer.
