    Police totally i would LOVE catching the bad guys or whatever you want to call them and i don't care what i get paid

    I had that choice and I chose to be an attorney. Financially, I am better off than all the doctors I know. I don't have to pay anywhere near as much for malpractice insurance. I don't have to work nights, ever. I have a challenging career that is intellectually stimulating. I get to do nothing but help people all day long.

    I would NOT choose:

    1. police - why would you want to get shot out for little pay?

    2. doctor - lots of studying, hard work, long hours and when you finally get to the payoff, somebody sues you

    Lawyers on the other hand get to do the suing (which seems to be on the rise in this country) and can play either side. In addition, they bring in a nice kitty and don't have to study as hard as doctors do. On the down side, they work long hours and have to hit the pavement for their own clients.

    Personally, I'd go into finance or accounting.

    Although I am currently in law school, I wish I would've stayed with Medical studies. There will always be a need for doctors, while there are already too many lawyers.

    i would choose a lawyer to represent me in court, a doctor to give me health advice, and police to guard the community from bad guys.

    for me, I'd choose police or lawyer because I don't think I can stomach being a doctor.

    A lawyer and then become a judge. Why? Judges can pretty much make laws by how they interpret existing laws. Talk about power! They do not have to take a vote and pretty much can have a job for life.

    I would have decide to be a doctor.Beacause it is like doing social job. People also honoured doctor more than the lawer or police. In India Police is the badest job which corrupts more .

    I'd choose lawyer, because otherwise I would have wasted all that time in law school and then studying for the bar exam.

    Lawyer, because I think I would be good at it and have fun doing it. (I wouldn't want to be a trial lawyer/ambulance chaser though).

    Last choice, Police, they don't get paid enough.

    I'd want to be a police officer and within the years work my way up to be a detective. Because i like that kind of excitement in my life.
