[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the pp who studied theater; I easily got into my top choice ls, and am now a tax attorney.

It doesn't matter what she majors in. The folks mentioning poli sci or history as pre-law majors are giving old info--nowadays I would avoid those majors unless she really loves one of them; people are still majoring in them thinking it will "be good for law school" so the applicant pool is flooded with them. I think that is part of what they liked about me -- my performing arts major was a bit different.

But she should pursue whatever interests her, and if that is marketing, it's fine.

What matters are grades and LSAT score, and if she can do any volunteering in the legal field that might be good too (I had volunteered a bit in the field of wrongful convictions -- the movie Dead Man Walking is what inspired me to go to law school). [/quote]

Did you study somewhere like Yale though, for Drama? I can't see anyone getting into Law from some podunk SLAC with drama. [/quote]
