>> More than likely the law firms are going to look at, you know,
your law school GPA, your law school class rank.
You know, see what type of organizations and involvement you had in law school,
whether you were in, you know, on the law journal, whether you were involved
in moot court, if you had any other type of officer positions in the law school,
and of course they'll look at your undergrad major, your GPA,
your activities, things of that nature.
Any job experience you have.
Well, I think it would depend on what area of law you would like to pursue.
For instance, in my law class I had CPAs or people with taxation backgrounds that planned
to go on and specialize in tax law.
There were others that had business degrees that planned to pursue business law.
So, I think it would depend on where you ultimately wanted to end up.
I think that if you took English classes and creative writing classes
that those would always be helpful no matter what area of the law you decide to pursue.
