<p>Hello everyone. I was wondering what are some good double major combination for future lawyers (or if a double major is even worth it in that case). Please note that I do not plan to be a lawyer in the U.S. Also, I am not so good/I don't like anything Math/Science, so definitely none of that :) I was thinking Philosophy (interested in it) and something else.</p>
<p>What do you guys think?</p>
<p>Bump >w></p>
<p>Also I was thinking Philosophy/English.</p>
<p>International Relations or maybe Political Science ?</p>
<p>Hm. Not too interested in PolySci…</p>
<p>You could also just do a single in Philosophy.</p>
<p>doesn’t matter. go single major, keep the gpa up and undergrad debt low.</p>
<p>French and Classics, because it’s what I’m doing, and I’m awesome.</p>
<p>The most important things for law school are to have a competitive GPA, competitive LSAT scores and to major in a sibject that requires alot of reading. So says my attorney.</p>
<p>drdom,
what about international relations and political science ?</p>
<p>Why are you asking people here, who are almost entirely from the US, what to major in if you want to go to a law school outside of the US? Here, people know about US law schools, not about non-US law schools. For example, one majors in law at the undergraduate level in European universities.</p>
<p>I am sorry, I should explain more:</p>
<p>It’s true that in England Law is a undergraduate degree. However, I cannot go to college in England after high school. I can do my undergraduate here and then go to England and convert my degree to law with a GDL program.</p>
<p>What I am asking for is not the double majors Law Schools here look for, but the ones that will prepare me to be a lawyer the most.</p>
<p>overachiever91 - Those majors are fine. Just watch your GPA and prepare well for the LSAT</p>
<p>Nothing you take as an undergrad prepares you to be a lawyer. Take what interests you.</p>
<p>Edited to add - obviously accounting classes may prepare you to be a tax lawyer. Environmental studies may prepare you to practice environmental law. Generally, without a particular specialized practice in mind, my first statement stands.</p>
<p>Any undergraduate program that requires you to think and write carefully will be a significant (necessary but not sufficient) step in your preparation for a degree in the law.</p>
