    I don’t know the exact reason that I’m posting this…feel like just to vent I guess…. I am today on the verge of changing my desired career path away from being a lawyer.

    Should I enter my university courses I dropped out of in the education section?

    Aw I have a mild stammer that just becomes terrible during VIs/oral exams (because of nerves). Just done two of them this morning and worried the interviewer/examiner won't see past the stammer :( i feel your pain but an accent really isn't anything to worry about! And definitely definitely no...
