Would I make a good lawyer/ is law right for me?

Hi,

My original plan was to become a psychologist, but I’ve realized that I don’t actually want to work as one. However, I still find psychology as a field fascinating. So far, I’ve taken a course in project management, and I’m currently taking an introductory law course and a course in social psychology.

I volunteer a lot. I’m a board member of RFSL Youth (the Swedish Federation for LGBTQI rights), a sex educator for RFSU (the Swedish Association for Sexuality Education), and a volunteer for BRIS (Children’s Rights in Society). I want my career to revolve around children’s rights, but I also don’t want to do the same thing all the time—I crave variety!

My mother describes me as curious and solution-oriented, which I agree with. I also have no problem coming up with ideas, partly thanks to my ADHD. In group settings, I tend to be the one making sure the group finishes tasks on time. I can be quite the talker, but I know when to be quiet. Naturally, I have no problem with public speaking—most people describe me as a great communicator. Today, my professor told me he appreciated my ability to cut through ambiguity and express things clearly and concisely.

TL;DR: I’m a curious, solution-oriented volunteer who cares about children’s rights and SRHR, with a need for variety. Based on my skills and interests, do you think law is a good fit for me? (Important sidenote: I'm swedish)
