Pre-Law in high school / Pre-law and other careers
« on: July 27, 2008, 05:27:04 PM »
I attend a prestigious high school where most people already have their life’s planned out. I, on the other hand still don't know what career or field I would like to go into. I excel and enjoy both English and History, so I am looking for a career in those fields. One of my teachers suggested law, as in pre-law.
After doing some research I discovered that some advise not to go into pre-law if you wish to become a lawyer. Another one of my strong areas is design. I am thinking that I could major in graphic/interior design and then go into law school later. Would that be a bad idea, or because it’s different than most majors could that help me. I know that design isn’t related to pre-law, but is this still an okay thing to do?
I am also wondering what else you can do with a pre-law, or political science major; or is it better to have a English or History major? And are their any related jobs that I could go into with a English or History major?
