<p>I plan on doing my undergraduates in economics either in :
UBC, UofT, or McGill.</p>
<p>I would love to do law at mcgill but cant due to french proficiency. </p>
<p>I heard McGill is the best in Canada for undergrad and is more internatioanlly known, with a better night life, but UBC has a better economics program.</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>Go to a place where you can get the highest GPA. I wouldn’t recommend any of those schools if you’re serious about being competitive for U of T law school (the most selective JD program in Canada). They’re all known for deflating grades (especially Toronto and McGill). Try Queen’s or Western (I’ve heard great things about Ivey’s HBA program and will be applying there too).</p>
<p>The most important parts of a law school app are the following:
<p>One of my Ds is at U of T Law school after doing her undergrad at U of T. Many of her classmates also attended U of T for undergrad. If you’re a good student, which you should be if you’re planning on law school, and you feel you can excel at U of T, UBC or McGill in your undergrad years, then choose the school that is best for you.</p>
<p>One thing I’ll caution you about, though, is that what you are planning now as a 17 or 18 year old who has yet to even start university, had a good chance of changing by the time you have to start thinking about and preparing for law school. Choose your undergrad based on what interests you now and not for what you think will be best for law school admissions.</p>
<p>Law school admissions in Canada is very selective and you will need a good gpa and a good LSAT score to be competitive. Law schools here are all good institutions, unlike in the U.S. Don’t get too focussed on getting into one particular school because, for many, that doesn’t happen.</p>
<p>yeah yeah ur right,…</p>
<p>thanks a lot for the great advice, no one i ever spoke to about this ever told me.</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>Chances are you’re going to abandon your fixation with law school sometime during the next four years, so I absolutely would not choose a university solely with a view to getting into law school. After all, you don’t know yet what law school or lawyering is like.</p>
