Graduating with honors?

Graduate School
1

<p>Right now, I'm sophomore, and I don't really know what I want to do after my undergrad years, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to do a double major in linguistics and French. One of the options I'm keeping open is grad school (hence my post here), but does it matter what I get honors in? I want to go for honors in linguistics, but, if anything, I think I'll wind up going for a French masters in order to teach French in high school. Obviously grade schools would prefer to see me have honors in French if I'm applying to a French program, but does it really affect anything? Is honors still honors regardless of what I'm applying for?</p>

<p>Another question (unrelated to the thread topic): Are there many people (or anybody for that matter) who study for both the LSATs and the GREs?</p>

<p>This is probably a question for a professor (I’ve only been on one side of admissions), but I would say that yes, it probably does matter a bit. The important thing about Honors is that you completed a significant piece of research, and for grad school that should preferably be in your area of study. It makes an excellent writing sample.</p>

Yes. Besides the people who aren’t sure what they want to do, several schools offer JD/MA programs.</p>
