<p>Which school provides you with the best undergraduate curriculum to build a firm academic foundation for pre-law students? As a pre-law student, I need to find a place with rich intellectual environment and great faculty in social science fields, like economics and political science. I would like to know which school is better for these two subjects? </p>

<p>My goal is to obtain a J.D in the law school of Yale or Harvard. So, is there any difference of having my undergraduate years in Stanford or Columbia? I’m a bit concerned about Stanford, since it is normally regarded a school for techys, and I am not quite sure how the social science and humanity departments in Stanford compared with Columbia. Columbia is a ivy school, while Stanford is not, will I feel uncomfortable coming to Yale/Harvard for law school from Stanford, rather than Columbia?</p>

<p>Please help me. I need to make a decision soon!!!</p>

<p>GO FOR FIT!!! LOL Columbia and Stanford both have amazing Law Schools and great Law school placement. It really makes no difference which one you chose. I would go for persoanlly preference. I personally thing Stanford is the best undergraduate experience, but that's just me.</p>
