<p>I have an interest in law school. but after reading about the debt and horrible job prospects i dont know if i would be better served to do an MBA/MD. all i really want is a good job and good money, i could care less about my major as i like almost all subjects and consider myself a "jack of all trades" kind of guy that would like to specialize in something. i scored 95th+ median percentile in English and 90th in math in 8th grade EOG (missed 8th grade EOG last year so i had to take it this year, but i am in 9th going into 10th grade) and i would have scored higher on math but could not study before test (test came a week earlier than expected). so with that said, what major would you guys suggest? im confident i can do just about any major outside physics/astrophysics. </p>
<p>any reply's appreciated.</p>
<p>No specific undergraduate major is required to attend law school. The variety of majors of LSAT takers is shown in <a href=“http://www.potsdam.edu/academics/AAS/Phil/upload/LSAT-Scores-of-Majors.pdf”>http://www.potsdam.edu/academics/AAS/Phil/upload/LSAT-Scores-of-Majors.pdf</a> .</p>
<p>Lawyers with an undergraduate engineering or science background may have additional law job and career options in patent and intellectual property law. CS pre-law students who are considering patent law should consider either choosing an ABET-accredited CS major, or taking additional course work that fulfills the patent exam prerequisites for non-ABET-accredited CS majors as listed in <a href=“http://www.uspto.gov/ip/boards/oed/exam/OED_GRB.pdf”>http://www.uspto.gov/ip/boards/oed/exam/OED_GRB.pdf</a> .</p>
<p>However, check carefully the law job market and the effect of law school ranking and prestige before committing to the cost of law school.</p>
