<p>I am most likely going to Emory University in the fall of 2009.
For a long time I've been interested in iBanking and law. If I really want to do law I would probably major in Economics and History at Emory (great history school). Emory's history program is pretty strong and would prepare me for the LSAT hopefully. </p>

<p>But I was thinking of trying to get into the business school if I still am undecided at this point in college.
MY QUESTION: With a degree from the business school, would I be prepared for GMAT and LSAT ?
ALSO, does anyone know if law schools widely accept business majors (I've heard you can major in just about anything.)</p>

<p>In short, yes.</p>

<p>The LSAT and GMAT are standardized exams and no major will "prepare" you for these exams--save for possible a quantitative major for the analytical portion but that would be overkill.</p>

<p>All that really matters about getting into a top Law program is your LSAT score, GPA and possibly any relevant internships. You can major in Woman Studies or Engineering, and with a 4.0 GPA/high LSAT score, you'll be competitive for the top programs.</p>
