Yenisei Wrote:IMHO as someone with a BA in Economics, I think it's a great major for a prospective law school applicant. I also think math, philosophy, accounting or finance would be as well. That said, from what I understand it's not worth going to law school unless you can get into one of the Top 14 schools, which is very hard to do.
EDIT: I'd also discourage you from a double major because of the time factor involved. I doubt testing out would be held against you if your LSAT is very high, except perhaps at the top schools.
If it's not worth going to law school unless you got to a top school, but the top schools might have a problem with testing out, what does that suggest?
I agree about Econ; I almost suggested a single-major econ degree. For one thing if you change your mind about Law it's still very useful.
