please help me to understand?

<p>if you can choose any course in order to get into law school, how will you past the LSAT, don't you need some background information about law?</p>

<p>The LSAT is a critical thinking test. It has no knowledge/material requirements.</p>

<p>Taking courses that help improve your critical reading skills (history, political science, english) or logical abilities (philosophy) will be helpful, but are by no means required. If you go to LSAC website, there is always a full LSAT available, and you can get a good idea of what's expected of you by glancing at that.</p>

<p>About</a> the LSAT</p>

<p>(Just posted the same in the other place you asked this question...sorry, hadn't seen the separate thread yet.)</p>

<p>bdm is correct. Law schools want to know if you can think and write logically and critically, not if you know anything about law - they'll take of that themselves. LSAT is more like SATs on steroids. What I've read suggests you want to do well on it the 1st time - law schools do look at all your scores, not just the most recent or best. If your school has a pre-law advising program, talk with them.</p>

<p>i feel so stupid right now, wow</p>
