How to excel when you aren't being challenged?

<p>@albclemom, is that really true? I don’t know much about law school admissions, but it seems to me that they wouldn’t care so much about major and in fact some students have good reasons for choosing very different majors (eg. gov or related for wanting to go into politics, or a science/engineering major for wanting to go into patent or environmental law). Why do you say that law schools favor philosophy?</p>
