Best double majors to become a lawyer

<p>Though I would imagine it would be extremely hard to coordinate in any reasonable amount of time, double majoring in English and accounting would be something to consider. I’m majoring in accounting and minoring in English. I get weird looks from people in both departments, but it works for me. In accounting you lack the writing training but gain a great deal of fundamental knowledge if you want to pursue corporate, tax, m&a, and the like. A successful lawyer friend of mine, who majored in accounting, said an English degree would be great training for law school because of the writing. But I guess poli sci would get you a lot of the writing, too. However, he warned that sometimes people get to law school, see that they don’t want to be a lawyer and get stuck with English, poli sci, philosophy, and similar degrees that don’t directly lead to a clear career-like accounting, finance, engineering do. It’s just something to think about.</p>
