[@jakeraven177]

Mate I hate when everyone thinks i'll be a politician just because I'm interested in politics modules, so ignorant. Thanks for this video, really opened my eyes up to the possibilities out there!

[@AliObeid_1]

I agree man, really annoying lmao

[@Sakshi-es6rr]

Such a helpful video! I actually wanted to do work experience with the UK Parliament but they aren’t doing any this year 😢

[@Charlie0311]

Another informative video! The issue with studying a 'prestigious' degree like politics or law at a top university is that everyone thinks that the only careers are law, banking etc... This is a great video to hopefully open up people's eyes on other careers for students studying politics or similar subjects. Keep up this content bro 👍

[@AliObeid_1]

Definitely bro. Politics gives a ton of transferable skills, so there's a lot you can do with it!

[@osmaanmohammed2266]

Really needed this video, hoping to do politics & IR this year at a RG uni

[@AliObeid_1]

I got you bro 👊🏼👊🏼

[@Kasomy82]

Hopefully will be having a similar trajectory to you ngl, rejected from Cambridge for History but going LSE for history+politics this year - hoping to get a tc with an American commercial law firm but that’s gna be diff ngl

[@hassanhamid4260]

[@CraigBukenya]

Social science? Is there’s pure politics course at KCL

[@greengrass8744]

How has your course been is kcl politics worth it?

[@keisicuni97]

What do you suggest to me that I want to do an internship around the political and security area but all of them require experience?! Like that’s why I need my internship though.. any ideas ??

[@skitz0299]

Could this apply to and economics degree if I took a lot of politics as modules ?

[@hyt1305]

Your videos help me so much bro. Is there any advice you could give to a student who just finished year 1? I’m struggling to land any form of experience because of the pandemic in my area. What else could I do to ensure I’m somewhat employable after graduating. Thanks

[@AliObeid_1]

Anytime bro! Will definitely try and make a video on this soon man, coming soon!

[@hyt1305]

@@AliObeid_1 thanks!

[@Ehsggsh12747]

How is it so far? I’m interested in politics and wonder if it’s a good degree course.

[@MantashaSultanECBOA]

[@georgebuckley284]

Do you think politics at the university of Liverpool is good enough to do these?

[@freshlyshaved5191]

For political risk analyst do you need a bachelors or masters degree

[@verygoodboy5724]

I want to join The United States Think Tank and help the country ❣️

[@Yviee5413]

Would it be harder for international students to look for these jobs?

[@evelynj1430]

if im interested in being a solicitor but i want to do a politics BA degree, will that mean i have to retrain to be a lawyer like do postgrad law or does the politics ba degree by itself propel you into the right direction?

[@AliObeid_1]

You just gotta do a conversion course called GDL or PGDL, look into it :)

[@priyajha4070]

Sir please scope???? From law and politics ba

[@snapamericancandy_p3892]

would u ever dip from ldn bro and go to america - salarys leng there

[@AliObeid_1]

Unsure bro! The culture shift sounds harsh, and I've been born and bred in London. Salary in New York is huge though...

[@hannahgregory3441]

got an offer to study history and politics at queens uni, is history useful for a politics degree?

[@Beantbeantbeant]

Yes, they are the best possible compliment to eachother and have very similar workload. They will both make you understand each subject more, as history is built by a series of the actions of politicians/monarchy, going all the way back to ancient history. At my uni we have modules studying the politics of the Roman Republic/Empire and Julius Caesars politics, which is what was used to build the american constitution etc. All politicians use the ancient greek skill of rhetoric, and you will likely study ancient politics/philosophy which is what all modern politics is based on. They are crucial.

[@hayots_lernashkharh]

i want to study political sciences to eventually become a politician lmaooooo. I'd like to be a lobbyist, advocator, or analysist for my party.

[@gouthamkumarreddygurreddy8260]

[@jordankerotwo]

LSE is the top UCL has great reputation in intl. politics KCL is great for issues related to war and peace and finally SOAS is the destination for whom hunting for best education in development studies, Asian and African studies.

[@danielbrown6558]

What are good jobs for history students?

[@jordankerotwo]

[@pav2764]

Teaching , you can probably get into the civil service

[@rossella7207]

Can you still get these jobs with a politics and economic degree?

[@gtageneral2290]

Ye I’m doing it and it seems very employable

[@ismeisme6441]

The salary is very low, isn’t it? Is that for under graduate student? Still is quite low.

[@user-vg7jc7hy6z]

Car sales

[@rzz9594]
