Hi i am studying in the UK, When i went to a law weekend, when i was 18 i was told that it is best to study up until 18 in the UK as our system is better. Then to study law in the US apparently your universities are better than ours (but the guy was an American professor!)\n\nOn employment i have no comparison, but I'm looking for work experience in the UK and its HARD! The US has a stronger litigation background so there are potentially more jobs as a lawyer there, especially in private client matters (eg. divorce/accident compensation)\n\nHope that helps.

It depends where you are from and what you want to do. In general terms, the US is the best place for opportunities without question. The US system of higher education have worked very well for hundreds of years and research is striving in both public and private institutions. I am sure Australia is cheaper, however, there are many options in the US that can help you obtain excellent education for good price. There are universities in some States like Utah that don't charge much. You can also start your first couple years in a reputable community college and then transfer to a university afterwards. Always choose the Community College close to the university where you want to go and call the admission in that university to ask about their experience with that community college.\nI don't want to fill you up with alot of info but I just want to highlight the many opportunities there are to study in the US for less money. With hard work you will succeed regardless of the place you choose.\nGood luck :)

Even though some of us would miss you here in the States. I think bubbacornflakes hit the nail on the head. Teaching Law in a foreign country. You've got communication, challenge, dealing with people straight on, broading inquisitive minds, and hopefully job satisfaction.

NO \nAs an international student your visa allowed only 20 hours per week to work but job which requires honors degree will be minimum 38 h/w.\nDIMIA is very active with international students case so don't risk yourself  to be deproted.\nIf you think you will earn money  and spend it on study and living  as an international student\nUK , USA or Canada would be better option not australia.\nBut \nYes if you want to study and learn and have some fun australia is the best place I belive but you have to bring your tution fees from home.

Back in 1990, the Australian Ambassdor to the US visited our college.  It was an interesting Q&A session and we got to see some things that really impressed me with Australia and its people. I found the labor laws to be rather interesting...especially in regard to overtime and so forth, not to mention just how powerful the labor unions are down there. One in particular stuck me...Bechtel was building a hydrogen peroxide plant down there and the unions were so tough, they hardly worked any overtime (since it's taxed at such a high rate)...in fact, the bulk of the crews were out the gate by 4pm each day.   If I ever could scrape up the money, I'd make a visit in a heartbeat.

To answer the question at hand first, the reason you find it difficult is that you are “FOLLOWING” the laws in place.  If you want to properly live in the UK, better have a good education, large nest egg of money and a job offer that will employee you or a company that will sponsor you. Just like anyone else trying to get into another country, and I have been to many. \n\n\nNow for a little education for FarmTruck, gailforce_wind, and tegidfoel It is difficult to see any points of view from any of your answers. \n\nTegidfoel, needs to read more about history, and not only the “tilted” view of American secondary school books.  Have you tried reading above a 5th grade level?  Now for your comment on Technology in the US, for the most part the US is in par with the major countries, yet as far as implementing much of this, the US is about 3 to 7 years behind most of the Asian rim and European countries (examples: auto engines, cell phones, TVs, most electronics and you can find we are falling behind in computers now).  China even has the safest nuclear reactor that should scare you. Hell even Canada, just might be a little farther ahead in some areas…  So when was the last time you were out of your city limits? \n\nI have lived and worked in 17 nations. \n\nReason one not to move to the UK, the cost will eat you alive. (I have lived in London, Belfast, Edinburgh, Uckfeild and Leeds off and on between 1982 to 2000, it is hard to save money) Now that is an agreement not to live there, not because you say so, sounds so very uneducated, be clear about your option and try to find a balance with you emotions.  \n\nFarmtruck is just angry about something, go get therapy.  \n\nGailforce wind – find a back bone and look for something more substantial to read other than some one like farmtruck

HI there I'm a fellow sydneysider. Sydney UNiversity (USYD) is by far the most prestigious reputable University in the country. Its located right in the city and has a great repuation. After that The University Of New South Wales (UNSW) would be equal and The UNiverity of Technology, Sydney (UTS). Otherwise if you didnt want to be in the city try the UNiveristy Of Wollongong, UNiveristy of Western Sydney and My fave  Macquarie University. If you don't like any of these theres always my uni University of newcastle which is about 2 hours north of sydney at ourimbah. All the best

Attorneys make more money, of course, but it seems like teaching at the university level would be more rewarding in other ways. Both would be stressful. I hear it's pretty hard to find a professorship, though. But a decent lawyer can always find work. If you're serious about pursuing an MA or a PHD in history, don't expect to have an easy time finding a job after you graduate. I'm thinking about going for an MA in literature. I just think it could be depressing to be a lawyer. I heard a good quote from a lawyer, regarding his job: "There are a lot of trees, but no forest."--In other words, you spend a lot of time poring over papers filled with boring little details, without ever dealing with the things that really matter in life. As a history prof, you'd get to spend more of your time thinking about the bigger issues.

If you are studying a different country, then study in that country. Of course it's better.\n\nIf it is a more general course that you could take anywhere, then find a university that is considered an authority on the subject.\n\nThat's a very general question, so I'm not sure how to answer. Just do some research. Yahoo Answers (in many ways) isn't a research site.

According to the immigration site you should stay in Australia for 2yrs as students or do a degree which is equivalent to two years.Beside that there are other requirements too.

Sure, why not.  Since you'll be working with lawyers, be careful to avoid anything that might be seen as a conflict of interest (e.g., doing extra work for a client of the firm and getting paid under the table for it -- that's a definite no-no).  L.A. is kind of expensive so you'll need all the income you can get.  Good luck.

It all depends on where are you from and where do you want to live.  If you are an american and want to live in the US working for an american company, you might be better of in the US.  On the other hand, if you want to work in Australia, or you are not american, I'd go for the Australian University.  The US is the most wonderful country to go for vacation and shopping.  Living in the US means working too much and sticking to too many laws, not to mention a strict police and sometimes abusive.  Enjoy Disneyland, Coca-Cola, 5th Avenue and Rodeo Drive.  Party in Miami but live in Sidney!

i'm not sure which would make more money in North America but right now I'm just finishing first year studying civil engineering in Glasgow, Scotland. It just depends if you're more into the designing side of things or the technical side. On my course there are people who are studying both civil eng and architecture so maybe you should think about doing that to give you a view of both subjects? Good luck!

There are many people studing law as compared to passed old days. This has really helped in justice in many countries. To be a lawyer , you need to be very craft and swift and very creative at all time.
