| What would you recommend?
It really does not matter, as almost every degree will help with law school in some way. English, History, Political Science, Sociology, Business, Economics all are fine bases. I had accountants, teachers, and even a Latin major in my law school class.What kind of law do you want to practice? If you know that, maybe your undergrad should be in that field. Perhaps CrimJustice if you want to do criminal work, or social work if you want to do family law or juveniles. If you like government work, perhaps public administration or urban planning. If you want to do medical malpractice, maybe even then biology/premed would work as well.Probably the most normal, and therefore most boring, would be Political Science. I was PoliSci/PreLaw, and about 75% of the PoliSci students at my university were PreLaw.Read One L, by Scott Turow. It's the story of his first year of law school, before he started writing bestsellers of legal stories.
