Would it make sense to major in sociology and eventually go to law school?
Booo the above answer…. You should really consider taking general liberal arts classes your freshman year and then deciding what your heart tells you. Law schools are open to a variety of majors, so your GPA should remain high (counselors will tell you lower than what you really should be at…even Ivy League schools have gigantic grade inflation anymore), proabably at least 3.5. You should also consider the type of law you’d like to practice. If you’re young, you might have no idea what you’d like to do eventually and you will probably change your mind. However, low paying but fulfilling jobs such as public defender would be a nice fit with sociology. Business would be a good fit with the private sector. History, Political Science, and Philosophy are some other majors that are common to law schools. Personally, I would recommend Philosophy with a high dose of logic. Once you learn the systems of logic, such as deductive arguments and logical fallicies, you’ll be way ahead of the Bus
