*Excel in English *Excel in Math *Read - LOTS. It doesn t really matter where you go to undergrad, since education at that level is basically the same (even in Ivy League). Becoming a lawyer is nothing but endurance. Tough schooling, tons of reading/comprehension, etc. Lawyering can also be very tedious, as paperwork takes up the majority of an employees time. Contrary to popular opinion, most lawyers do not spend most of their time dancing in front of a jury. Education: 6-7 years depending on how quickly you go through undergrad/J.D. After that, it s all about personality. If you re emotional and morally driven, I recommend perusing other methods of employment.
Just go to college and then to law school...not that hard to figure out. Graduate and take the bar exam.
deeep pockets it will cost you plenty ,,, mj
Where do you live? It matters as the rules differ by country (and, less by state). In CA there is even a way to sit for the Bar exam without ever going to law school...although I don t recommend it. As stated above, it really doesn t matter what you take in high school, except as it would apply to what college/university you want to attend. Entrance into law school is judged by a combination of your GPA in your undergrad major (different weight may be given to different majors), your LSAT scores and recommendation letters. Find out what is required at the law schools you might want to attend and then plan your undergrad studies accordingly. For example, some school might not admit anyone with a LSAT score lower than 165-170. Others will admit with a 150. Still others might let you in with a LSAT lower than 150 if you had a high GPA in a tough major. Generally speaking in the US, you ll need to obtain a Bachelor s degree (however long that takes you) and attend law school which is usually 3-4 years, although there are schools which also offer a 5 year program for working students, etc.
