You need to apply yourself in school. Get good grades. Getting into college with good grades, getting good grades in college to get into law school. It s great to have a goal. What you can do right now is dow well in school, apply yourself to your studies. Take lots of English, writing, Social Science classes. You might join the HS forensics team, speech, debate, etc. Some schools have mock trial teams, or scholastic bowls. These can be good preparation. Part of being an attorney requires public speaking. When you re 16-18, apply at local law firms for summer jobs. They need messengers, mailroom, copyroom clerks, etc.

Finish JR. High, finish H.S., get an undergrad in Pre-law, take the LSAT, apply to Law School, get accepted, graduate with a Juris Doctorate and Pass the bar....................... SIMPLE? Right ! I don t understand your sentence: People say lawyers become lawyers, but there not exactly lieing, there putting a point across. First of all the word THERE is used incorrectly in your sentence. It is THEY RE - a contraction for THEY ARE. You will never get into Law School with grammar like that.

As for now, just read a lot and make good grades. Improve your grammar. Once you get into junior high look into joining a debate club, if your school has one. But read, read, read, and then read some more! It is the best preparation for law school.

graduate high school, get a 4 year degree, and apply to law school -talk to your school counselor.
