to get into a Law Program in University? It doesn't have
to be exact or anything I would just like to know what
marks, and what courses. I have done a lot of research
online but I want more information. Thanks!Law...............?
To get into law school, you do not have to take any courses; there are no prerequisites. You can graduate with any major, even art. However, schools do give more weight to applicants who choose more challenging majors. But essentially it will come down to your GPA and your LSAT score. As for a minimum GPA and score, of course it depends on the school.
But even though there are no required classes, I recommend that you take critical thinking, economics (you'd be surprised at how related economics and law are), any intro law course like business law, and a solid writing course. I actually would recommend technical writing because it focuses on organization of information and focusing your writing to your prospective audience rather than finding themes, and reading literature.
Finally, here's something to consider. I started undergrad as an engineering major. I hated it and actually flunked out of school. I went to a community college, transfered to a four-year college, graduated, and was admitted to a law school. I think my overall GPA was about 3.4, and my LSAT score was 149. Not exactly the greatest. But I got into law school and I passed the bar and am now practicing law.Law...............?
I'm not sure if you mean college or law school, but here are some courses I have taken in college and graduate school pertaining to law:
Criminal Law
Criminal Evidence
Criminal Procedure
Agency and Business Contracts
General and Survey Contracts
Migration and Law
There are many, many more once you begin studying the course and subject extensively.
