Taking a law course in undergrad

Graduate School Law School
1

<p>So I know that pre-law majors are looked down upon in law school admissions. I assume this is mostly because it shows a lack of verve and brio. But I also assumed that it's partially because law schools don't want your brain adulterated by foreign professors. </p>

<p>To what extent are the above true? If at all?</p>

<p>I ask because I want to take a business law course offered by my school. I already have a full course load but this class is only taught once a year and is supposed to be amazing and the professor is supposed to be really good. It's also supposed to be easy, so I'll probably be able to pull an A in it pretty handily without sacrificing my other core classes.</p>

<p>Thoughts?</p>

<p>Taking a business law course is not the same as doing a pre-law curriculum. The latter is mostly looked down upon, at all, because it gives the misleading impression that there is a predefined set of coursework that prepares you for law school. I think admissions officers don’t agree with that mentality, and generally want students to come from a diverse spectrum of academia.</p>

<p>So that’s a yes then?</p>
