<p>Out of these three, which would you guys recommend for someone extremely interested in Law? UCD? UCI? or UCSB?</p>
<p>My uneducated opinion would be to pick the one where you feel most comfortable. I think finding the environment that suits you will help you perform academically. As far as reputation goes, these schools are supposed to have very different environments, I can’t tell you how accurate the reputation is though. Bottom line (still my uneducated opinion), law schools want to see (in rough order of importance) a good lsat and gpa, writing skills, some letters of rec from profs and some decent extracurriculars (less important). I think these are more easily attained when you are content with your surroundings.</p>
<p>I’m sure someone else can help you with specifics about the schools you listed (or maybe just tell you why i’m wrong).</p>
<p>All are about equal in undergraduate education. I would pick Davis because they have a Law School I believe. You could try and take classes there or work with a Professor. Though you might find better internships at UC Irvine.</p>
<p>Doesn’t matter. Your law school applications will come down to LSAT, GPA and extracurriculars. Go to a school where you will not have to expend a lot of money to survive, as you’ll be taking on a lot of debt in law school. Make sure you pick a major that will be somewhat outside of the traditional law school majors: if you pick a sciencey major, for example, you will be eligible to take the patent bar, if you at all have an interest in patents. A BS will look better than a BA to a law school.</p>
<p>i went to uc irvine over davis and sb because i liked the area and campus better. </p>
<p>in terms of prep for law school, it doesn’t matter. go to the school you favor and just do your best to get a high gpa. lsats and gpa are pretty much everything in the admissions process.</p>
<p>thank a lot guys. Im gonna go to UC and save my $$ for grad school.
thanks again,
