But medicine course is in itself much tougher to get into than law courses. Even if we talk about "buying" an overseas uni cos cmi to local law/med schs, an overseas MBBS is at least 3x more expensive than an overseas LLB.

So if you extend the "lookback" period to A Level/poly time, law seems to give a better ROI for average performers on the whole.

The whole schtick with protection professions is that the competitive barriers to entry starts at the uni admissions stage (to a recognised MBBS or LLB degree). So it makes sense to lookback to that stage as the starting point of comparison.
