As mentioned, straight A student intakes are the norm, not the exception.
It is true that law is not doing well. And with current AI technology, both law and accountancy jobs will be massively disrupted by the time you graduate. Comp Sci and Engineering are good bets. However, Singapore is not Silicon Valley. Your expertise will not be as appreciated or recognized.
It is time to recognize that the Singapore job market has been in a race to the bottom and the consequences are hitting us hard now.
If ROI is your concern, then your surest bet is to take a civil service scholarship, study comp sci or engineering, then camp there in your ministry or stat board forever. Unless you are willingly to venture outside of Singapore, this is just about your only choice.

Excuse me but what does a finance job include? Does it include equity analyst? Is it hard to get an analyst job?
