[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t understand what law school is about. - biglaw partner [/quote] +1 It's all about the creds. Give me the summa cum laude poli sci major rather than the cum laude physics major, because who wants to have a super pricey lawyer who wasn't at the top of their class.[/quote] I get it's all about creds but why wouldn't a law school want a chemistry major from MIT who got a 3.5 vs. a Dickinson (nothing against Dickinson! I happen to think it's a good school. Just not as prestigious as MIT) grad who majored in majored in Amercian Studies and got a 4.0?[/quote] Yes many would want the 3.5 chem major from MIT particularly for patent law but even better if you can find an MIT undergrad degree holder who also graduated with high honors. If you look at bios on law firm pages, a lot of lawyers don’t list their majors. [/quote]
