Kind of lost
I just graduated college with a decently high GPA (given my major/rigor context) from a T10 and worked hard to get leadership positions, won some awards in competitions, graduated Phi Beta Kappa, studied abroad at Oxford and got first class marks etc. so I think if I were to apply to law school (with the intention of working in Biglaw) I'd do well. I also interned at an IP law firm my junior year and liked the experience. I have genuinely wanted to work in Biglaw since 7th grade because I love big cities, obviously the pay/prestige/exit options, the work itself is interesting (I love to read/write/speak and am very interested in social studies/humanities; I also like how Biglaw helps facilitates deals and American commerce in general), and I'd like to go to graduate school in some form since I don't think I'm done studying. I'm going to start a consulting-adjacent role soon at a F100 very soon let's say just under six figs base. I don't think I'd like the role as much (planning to work it for 2-3 years and then attend law school) as Biglaw although I guess the work-life balance would be better. The exit options also aren't the best at my incoming job and the income doesn't scale quickly to reach Biglaw levels until lots of years in. Sorry for the rant but I'm really confused on what to do with my life... I'm kinda pissed that I should have focused more on career grinding than academic grinding to not have impressed my professors etc. as much and done IB which might not be as AI-endangered and well-paid out of graduation and no need for graduate school with lost years of income, debt etc...
