I'm so screwed... (getting this off my chest)
#2
RE: I'm so screwed... (getting this off my chest)
Can you get a job (even part time) working for a law firm as a paralegal? Does the school provide any job placement services for students? In grad school, the school helped place me in PT professional jobs so I could work and still attend classes.

You need to fess up to your folks ASAP. The longer you let it slide the worse it will be.

The dropping out issue is totally up to you. If you're 100% convinced you'll never use the education you should probably look at options. If you can stick it out I think you would be better off. Sounds like you're 2/3 or 3/4 of the way through already. A degree is always worth something even if not applied in the legal profession. The business world loves an educated individual. I can't tell you how many managers we had at our company that had undergrad degrees and making good money when their degree had nothing to do with the business.

Does your country offer student loans? By the time I got through school I was $40K in debt, and this was in the 80's. No scholarship/funding for school, just loans and part time work. Best decision I ever made.

Good luck and best wishes.
