You can get accepted to law school with any major. Something that makes you think critically, apply reasoning, etc. Philosophy is an example, but might not be the best major for you. Pick something that interests you that you could do well in.

I think psychology, political science, or even a major in law would be extremely beneficial when applying into law school.

Yeah?... The LSAT is based on mathematical logic techniques and answers.

There have been numerous threads related to this topic online so you're not the only one!

Time and time again, its been said you can major in ANYTHING to go into law school. In the end, at the time of application all law schools really look at is your GPA and LSAT mark. However, there are quite a bit of things to consider what to major in before law school...

So its been said there isn't any preferences in majors in law school admissions, however prior going to law school, I think that it's smart to have a backup plan, in case you change your mind about law school, which some people do encounter.

There are the typical "pre-law" majors (also, "pre-law" doesn't exist but I'm just making a statement) such as Political science, History, Philosophy, Economics,Criminology, English, etc.. so its pretty evident lots of them come from the Social Sciences/Humanities. However, there are students from Engineering, Biology,and Fine Arts that also apply to law school and get admitted! All in all, your major should be something you LOVE and have a passion for, and also consider a career with in case law school is out of the agenda later on.

Your major may also help you in law school and afterwards. For example, Engineering will benefit you if you want to go into Patent/IP law, Business to go into Corporate/Taxation law, Criminology for Criminal law, and so on. Law schools like diversity and you will see it on most law school mandates that they constantly look for a diverse student body so you don't necessarily have to conform just because one major is more popular for law school than another. Just make sure to take classes involving lots of writing, reading and critical thinking as this will not only help you for the LSAT, but for law school and onwards. Good luck!
