College?????

Ok, right now I am a sophomore in high school, I am thinking about becoming a lawyer. How does law school work ? do you have to receive your bachelors and masters before you can enter law school ? and if so, what do you have to major in.

College?????
If you are thinking of law school, you need a bachelor's degree. Usually, people who go into law are in the major


political science, philosophy, or some in English. Then you


will have to take LSAT, which is the entrance exam for law school. Law is another 3 years of school after receiving your bachelor's degree. Law school is generally tough because I've heard from friends that you there is one exam per class.
Reply:In order to reach your career goal of becoming a lawyer, you first need to obtain a bachelors degree and a very respectable accumulative GPA and then obtain a good score on the LSATs to gain entry into an accredited law school. Many students choose to major in Pre-law during their undergraduate years in preparation for the LSATs and law study but this major is not required. As long as you get proper advisement from your college advisor as to the courses that are recommended to prepare you adequately for this law school entrance exam, you could major in any course of study that interests you. What is most essential is that you develop your communication skills -both oral and written, your analytical skills, and organizational skills. So, the most important thing to keep in mind is to select a college major in whatever field of study interests you the most and to excel in it. You may even discover that you would like to focus on this concentration in your law career. Good luck in your future endeavors!
