<p>I didnt know where else to post this topic and I know there are some extremely intelligent and helpful people on the Cornell board, so I posted it here. If anyone can answer, I'd greatly appreciate it.</p>
<p>I think I might rephrase the question...can you go to a GOOD Law School with an undergraduate degree in Business?</p>
<p>I think so, find out what the requirements for pre-law are. You can go to ILR and I know you can go to law school from there.</p>
<p>any major can go to law school its all about your lsat score</p>
<p>It's not ALL about your LSAT score, but that's a major factor. Different law schools have different desires. But Harvard Law, for instance, says that want a "clear focus" in your undergraduate education, with a concentration in a field of your choosing. They give a few suggestions, including policy, labor relations, etc., but CLEARLY state that there is no "magic formula" or "required major" for a prelaw student. </p>
<p>Basically, if you focus yourself, and get a degree in something useful, not something COMPLETELY unrelated-like architecture, for example, you will be fine. Even with an architecture degree, I'm sure there's some field of law which you could apply it to (not quite sure, but, maybe? hahaha). I am also going pre-law, and am attending the college of Industrial and Labor Relations next year.

<p>i think government and poli sci are the best majors for law school prep</p>
<p>if you want to be a supreme court justice, yes. However, if you want to be a patent lawyer, or a corporate attorney, or an estate lawyer, what good is government going to do for you? You see what I'm saying? Not that law schools will ask what you want to do specifically, but you might as well go into a major that you PERSONALLY will use. I hate government and can't stand politics. I'm definitely not gonna become a senator, or supreme court justice.</p>
<p>Yes you can most law schools don’t care what degree you have as long as you have one. However most school do not want you to have a pre-law degree. Acceptance in law school is mainly based on your GPA.</p>
<p>I’ve begin looking choosing my undergrad and I’m going to get a degree in business management and the a law degree. So find something your passionate in and get a degree in that .</p>
