[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does undergraduate school or major matter? DC is interested in law school. Would going to a lower ranked school with an easier major be okay if they earned high grades? Thank you for the thread.[/quote] The top two most important factors are GPA and LSAT. Everything else is less important. Far less important. I do think law schools will also consider career placement in their recruiting as it does affect their stats, such that an electrical engineer who wants to do patent work may have an edge over a medieval literature major if they have comparable GPAs and LSATs. The engineer is far more likely to get a legal job in a down economy than a literature major, even with a lesser legal GPA. At this point law schools are also heavily recruiting for diversity and an interesting bootstraps story may also give a small boost over even a top undergrad school. [/quote]
