>How can you admire objectivity then go in to law?

Yeah that's kinda why I'm conflicted.

Although law is certainly more 'objective' than other non-STEM subjects such as English, Philosophy, History, etc. At least in law there is problem-solving and some questions that do have certain answers. Sure there can be debate over technical points of law (usually 'does X count as Y?') but in a lot of typical scenarios it's fairly clear-cut what the answer is. If it weren't then the law would be completely unreliable, right?

I think law is the best of all the non-STEM subjects if you enjoy problem-solving and that stuff. I'm just hung up on how law is 'artificial' whereas science studies naturally-occurring things.

I really do enjoy studying law itself. But I just can't get out of my head the idea that science is 'purer'.
