[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no right choice.  She can major in anything from English to Engineering and go to Law School.  I went to U of Penn Law School and members of my class came from all over and majored in everything.[/quote]

Yes. I remember at my law school orientation they went over how many states and countries we were from, and named all of our undergrad majors, to show us what a diverse class we were with regard to geographic background and majors. [/quote]

THIS! I went to Stanford Law and laugh at these threads every time. Admissions is bored silly with the “prelaw” poly sci Ivy League-type undergrad. What a boring class it would be if everyone had followed that path.  I was a foreign language major at a school no DCUM poster would find impressive.  No hooks.  Be interesting and genuinely passionate about your academics whereever you study. Don’t be a sheep.[/quote]

And you probably attended decades ago. Law school admissions has changed significantly even in the last five years. Work experience matters greatly. There is lots of grade inflation now. The LSAT is easier than when you took it. Prestige of undergrad matters more for T14 now. You do need a hook besides your GPA and LSAT.[/quote]

Lol, not PP but a lawyer who attended a top school -- of course "work experience matters." And the sky is blue. And water is wet. That doesn't contradict what the PP said. So tired of the mommies who aren't actually lawyers running their mouths around here about things they don't fully understand. [/quote]
