As Uncle says, employers target certain Universities, and circa 60% of grad roles are open to graduates of any discipline. Obviously certain careers require specific quals e.g. medicine but not all.Even for law, a law degree is not a requirement and you can go down a training route and further quals to get into that. If uni is the way to go, then which uni will perhaps be the bigger question in terms of the prospects on completion. http://www.highfliers.co.uk/download/2016/graduate_market/GMReport16.pdf Not likely to retire until 70 so give a few things a whirl. Get work experience over summer holidays, then internships while at uni then try to make a decision. Likelihood is you will change route 5 or 6 times during your working life anyhow.
