<p>i am being told the best way to get into a great law school and be adequately prepared for the LSAT is through a liberal arts college...but i never say myself as doing this! i always saw myself going to law school though! what should i do...i want to major in business so i can get a degree in that but i want to get my JD to practice entertainment law...what do i do?</p>
<p>entertainment + business = nyu</p>
<p>i mean i figured as much! but everyone around me recently has been telling me the best way to get into a great law school is to major in something OTHER than business like philosophy or something liberal artsy....i still feel like my main interests are vested in entertainment business, law and the general entertainment field as a whole</p>
<p>can i still get into a top college, say if i majored in business with concentration in entertainment and minor in production..would that look to "off" for great law schools...i personally don't think so, but what do you guys think/know</p>
<p>Yeah...I'd like to be a lawyer too, and from what I hear take advantage of the time you have in college to pursue your interests. They recommend you don't take a pre-law major but take music, art history, biology, english, whatever, to make yourself happy. It'd be a plus if it could help you out in law school like an english major, but follow your heart!</p>
<p>wouldn't you business with a specific emphasis in entertainment (my interest) would be beneficial not only to myself but to law school as well?</p>
<p>Yes, I think so..that's why it'd be a good option! Why don't you ask your counselors or adults around you. perhaps if you have a lawyer in your family, ask them what they went through.</p>
<p>The reason those majors are suggested to you is that law schools are looking for strong writing and, even more importantly, analytical thinking.
If talents such as these come easily to you, and/or if you can find a way to cultivate them during college while persuing a business major, then there is certainly no problem with doing so. As long as you have everything else they want, your less common (for law school, not in general, lol) major choice could even benefit you.
Plus, law school certainly cares about grades, and you're likely to do your best majoring in what you love.</p>
