Tried reading some academix writing. (Articles)

Its pretty neat dog. I was reading this article about how is factul information used in descicion making in politics. It was a study about that. There was 30 studies they had gathered and they summarized their results and explained what are we trying to figure out here. How the environment in the country affects if studied, factual information is used in politicsl descicion making.
Like for example in mexico. Or hell just liberal cities, they cherry picking studies to work for their agenda.

Shit like that.
It was comprehensive as fuck, topped to the brim with info.
And i was impressed that theres some nerd writing this shit.
Its difficult to read, but its sound mate.
Im gonna dedicate some time tomorrow and in the future to try to read these stuff, so i can take one glimpse at a article and be like right mate, i know exactly whats going on here.

Understood absolutely nothing of that. I want Piram to succeed, but maybe lower your standards a bit. You will never be a lawyer or an accountant etc. Nothing wrong with that, other professions can make just as much.

You will hate me for saying it, but it could save you money, time and headaches.

You have to understand, scientific studies aren't always worth gold. There's corruption involved in some of it. It's packaged into a nice sciency article, but a lot of times it's 'smoke and mirrors'.

Shades of wisdom here.

@OP don't rule anything out, but definitely consider the costs and work involved in these goals as well as expose yourself to some of the course material to get a feel if you can really handle it. There are free educational platforms out there you can view course material and even take some courses for free. Explore some of that and try to gauge if you can handle it.

Cost should absolutely be a factor though. Med school and law school are very expensive for most people. Becoming an accountant would definitely be more reasonable, but you should also consider the actual work of the profession. Not everyone can handle doing accounting work for 8 hours a day 5 days a week, or sometimes significantly more if you plan on getting ahead and advancing.

Yup a LOT of those studies are manipulated and only explore one aspect of the subject matter. Some of them have genuinely good intentions but some have sponsors who are looking for specific results.

He could probably get on the ladder as a paralegal. Srs.

They just fill paperwork in and photocopy shit all day. And some firms will pay for you to study as a lawyer/you're in that environment so pick things up.

I'm not even talking about sponsers, such as those listed at the end. Sometimes the articles are valuable, sometimes they're not. Maybe that covers what you meant as well

I’ve done some digging. Hear me out brahs

The finnish entry exam for law school changed completely last year.
The old exam had you reading 2 big books of law & memorize it to a T.
The new exam has 3 sections. First is the general section. You have to complete it if you want to study history, theology and law.
Its fully a reading comprehension test. You get a 40ish page material of this scientific text & answer multiple choice questions about it.

Second section is a essee. Now this is a motherfucker for me.
Again you read a material & make like an argumentative text about it. This is where id need to step up my game because my writing is dog ass even in my native language.
So expect to read my training esses in the future here.

Third section is again reading comprehension, but its a 200page material & you have 3 days & its law based.

Last year you needed a minimum of 63/100points on the test.
This is doable for me. Srs

You still haven't ascended to the realization that these "studies" are many times bullshit, faked, fraudulent, paid for, and cherry picked to get the conclusion they want.

Even MEDICAL DRUG STUDIES can be fraudulent.

I myself partook in legitimate drug studies where they did blood draws every 15 minutes for days, to see how the human body processes various new drugs.


Hint: the massive medical complex went bankrupt because they were caught frauding, caught falsifying drug testing so chit could get passed.


Even in academics (phd areas), there is a fuck ton of fraud, and people publish absolute bullshit.
