    Three reasons to do a university course (in no particular order):
    1) to get a job in a certain area;
    2) because you have a passion for a particular subject;
    3) because you love education generally and the specific course was offered to you.

    I don't want to sound harsh but it is not clear if you are in any of the three categories. Ask yourself what you really want and then do that.

    MBA and then go and manage things for more money than most legal professionals can only dream of.
