For many, the road to law school begins in college.  Early on, you may wonder if there’s a way to focus your undergraduate studies to help your law school application stand out or to prepare you for the rigor of law school. Are there courses that can help boost your LSAT score?  Do certain majors help convince the admissions committee that you’re “law school ready?” Which undergraduate classes might actually help you as a law student?  We talk with top law school admissions deans, a prelaw advisor, and a leading admissions consultant and author to explore how the admissions committee evaluates your coursework and to see how your undergraduate studies might impact your performance as a 1L.
