To major in math or not to major in math

<p>If your goal is to get to Law school, then choosing the right major is very important. You want to major in something that interests you and at the same time can give you a good shot at a near perfect gpa. Law schools do NOT care what you major in, the only time majors matter is if you want to go to patent law (you have to be a science major to take the patent bar). You said you were interested in history, why not go for that then? </p>

<p>LSAT is probably a bit more important than GPA but both are extremely important, more than anything else. Generally, Biology/Chemistry majors score the highest on the LSAT, then Philosophy/Political Science/Religion, etc. If you want to get into Boalt, then GPA would be weighed slightly more than LSAT (avg GPA being near 3.72++). I strongly suggest you take your time and choose wisely, if you go in without thinking and end up with a 3.0 as a math major, then you will most likely be auto rejected from HYS,Boalt, and several other T14 (unless you somehow score a 180). </p>

<p>Good luck</p>
