Am on track for second upper local law sch . Even if I pivot to another industry, I would be judged as a second upper grad alongside those with the same class of honors from other degrees right. In other words not particularly high flying. I should stick it out until call and leave if i don't like practice?
Stick it out and get called, you'll at least have an avenue to go back to law (assuming you leave right after).

Working conditions suck, but pay is good. It's just that most people do not want such a lifestyle.
