Hello!
I am currently stuck between two majors/schools and I am not sure how to proceed.
My eventual goals are to go onto law school and pursue a career in government/politics. I was recently admitted into the business school at my university, but I am unsure if I should take this offer. I understand law school does not consider one’s major, just GPA and LSAT score, and I do feel as if I would be more successful academically with a political science degree since I am more interested in this subject and have succeeded in similar courses in the past. However, the business school is an incredible opportunity that people say I should not pass up, and it would allow me to pursue jobs where I can make some more money and pay off loans in the short term.
Basically, I am stuck as I do not want to put myself in a position where I won’t succeed in something I am not as passionate about abd I don’t want to limit myself from political internships that may help me in the future, but I also understand the need to be practical and that I can still go to law school with a business undergraduate degree - which can also open some other doors as well.
I am 100% sure I want to attend law school and either go into the judicial or legislative side of politics - however, getting there is what I’m unclear on.
Any insight would truly be appreciated - thank you!
