<p>There is no such thing as a college that prepares you for law school, unless you want to take all of the law school courses in college and then take them again in law school. (I met one guy that did that. He was a bore and had no knowledge) I am speaking from personal experience as a practicing litigation attorney with more than 25 years of experience. My college (actually a prestigous university) had a only a handful of “pre-law” courses. I took one. It did not prepare me for law school at all. To “prepare” for law school, one needs to learn how to write and read and how to analyze. That you can learn if you work a bit, and are smart enough, at any college or university, taking any courses. Then, you need to do well enough on the LSAT. That will get you into a law school (they are happy to take your tuition money). Once in law school, you must work hard to get good grades to get a job afterwards, unless you have a particular law specialty that is in demand at the time you graduate, in which case grades are not so important. Not to rain on your parade, but law school grads of June 2009 who obtained job offers for September 2009 are now being told to show up in October 2010, and some even later, many with no income in between.</p>
<p>I think you are a strong candidate and should have a good shot. The no-SAT/ACT might hurt you, though. </p>
<p>Remember that you can major in anything you want and still go to law school. There is no such thing as a pre-law major, and it is not necessary to take pre-law courses.</p>
<p>The no SAT won’t hurt you. MoHo doesn’t take the SAT/ACT in consideration for years, unless requested. You have good chances! Good luck! Don’t forget to post their answer!</p>
<p>About the law school, they actually do. It is about 1% of the graduating class (it is a lot, most colleges don’t even have enough to get a percentage). Probably about 6 students successfully got into Law.</p>
<p>Tnx for answer! I got in but not sure will I attend it though… still trying to find a way to finance it. if we don’t manage to do it, i’ll decline the offer but it’s a great thing that a well established institution like moho accepted me. :)</p>
