<p>Im planning on studying Law in my undergrad followed by a
diplomacy PG.</p>

<p>I know i need to be focussed in my ECs. I need you to tell me what I can do that would help promote my main interests (Writing and debating)</p>

<p>Heck yea baby, you're heading somewhere good! I'm getting the feeling you're into the stuff you do. Keep that passion up in whatever you do, and don't worry too much about the numerical aspect of your highschool years. You'll do just fine and beyond.</p>

<p>hmm... if you want to study law in undergrad, don't go to yale. There's no pre-law major! There's also no pre-law major at any ivy league school.</p>

<p>YLS (Yale Law School) is pretty amazing though...</p>

<p>Helpful advice: learn to spell before you put that application in the mail.</p>

<p>"hmm... if you want to study law in undergrad, don't go to yale. There's no pre-law major! There's also no pre-law major at any ivy league school."</p>

<p>There are probably no "pre-law" majors, but that doesn't mean you can't study law. Undergraduates at Yale and other Ivies frequently take law courses or courses in related departments, sometimes taught by law school faculty, in which they read actual cases. Yale even has its own major called Ethics, Politics and Economics, which is heavily into legal studies. Of course, the Ivies and other top schools espouse the liberal arts education, which means you aren't supposed to concentrate on a field as narrow as, say, law before you've had a chance to study the great poets, diplomats, statesmen and stateswomen, writers, scientists, and thinkers... including some great legal minds! That said, the schools with the highest rates of acceptance into the world's most prestigious law schools (and other top programs, like diplomacy/foreign affairs) are liberal arts colleges - Yale, Harvard, Amherst, Williams and the like.</p>
