What are the most prestigious careers: Medicine, Law, or Engineering?

<p>Of these careers, which do you believe is the most prestigious/impressive?</p>

<p>If you want clarification or you want to say another profession, that is fine, but please also specifically answer the posted question.</p>

<p>Thank you and happy holidays!</p>

<p>Who cares about what is most prestigious. Do what you are interested in.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t say that there is any one prestigious career, there are pros and cons to each of those. For medicine, you are curing people of diseases but it’s also easy to make a mistake and end up with a malpractice suit directed at you. For law, you could be defending a variety of clients, but I’ve heard lawyers for being known as “greedy”. I don’t really know that much about engineering, but i’m sure there are pros and cons to each. And each one of those requires you to be knowledgeable about completely different things - science, logic, math, etc. And you can’t really compare that. I agree with blahblah, just do what you are interested in.</p>

<p>Unless you’re a football playing king in space with a mustache, your career isn’t prestigious/impressive.</p>

<p>I hope you’re not basing your career plans based on prestige, especially these 3 very different fields. Just do what your passionate/competent at</p>

<p>I do not know which one among these 3 careers is the most prestigious. But it is for sure that the medicine costs more money (and number of years):</p>

<p>The most prestigious career is a fine artist.</p>

<p>The world is changing and each of the careers you ask about has declined in prestige. I think that in today’s world starting a tech company is clearly the most prestigious career path (for whatever that’s worth, i.e. your parent’s ability to brag at cocktail parties, etc).</p>
