What should I do with my career? Feeling completely lost at 23
Hi everyone! I could really use some advice!!.
I live in the US and I always thought I wanted to go to med school, but after doing some clinicals, I realized I didn’t really enjoy it. I’m currently pursuing a business degree but had to pause because of finances.
Lately, I’ve become interested in possibly going into law and taking the LSAT, but I have no pre-law background and honestly don’t know where to start.
I’m also not a U.S. citizen, so financial aid/scholarship options are limited, and I’m currently waiting on my asylum decision.
I know I’m only 23, but I feel so lost and behind because I used to be so sure about my future. 🥺
Should I explore law, and what LSAT resources would you recommend for a complete beginner?

"I feel so lost and behind because I used to be so sure about my future." --- one thing that comes with experience is learning that the things we planned for don't always come true. It is okay if your favorite flavor of ice cream changes, or an old friendship no longer serves you, or what you used to want to do for a career no longer applies. Try to use this time to better understand yourself. Your mind and your heart will always lead you to what is right, if you give them space to breath. Wishing you the best, you got this!
