<p>Exactly, Old Fort. Pick a major you are interested in, not one that has been traditionally seen as “an easy A” just so that you will get into a top law school. Now that median grades are sent along with those “easy A’s” these majors may not look the same to these schools. I believe that one will get into a top law school from Cornell if they pick a major that reflects hard work by earning high grades and showing passion for studies through related clubs and activities.</p>
<p>My D is still undecided and I would never want her swayed by some of the philosophies of her fellow classmates who are picking easy majors that they state that they “hate” and trying to avoid pre-recs in majors that could “kill their GPA.” True, her GPA may not be a 4.0 at the moment but she is doing very well and is just about done with those pre-recs so everything will open up to her.</p>
