tkwrx18 asked:


Hi, I’ve heard many stories about law school seeking a more diverse undergraduate degrees. In my case, I have a Bachelor in Music Education and wanting to go into law. Do I need to get another bachelor in political science, or philosophy then into graduate school for law? Or do I go straight into law school with my B. M. Ed.

    No problemo. Your music degree is fine. It is not the best option for preparing you for the LSAT tests – but its not bad either.

    Thanks

    I have the same issue! (love music ed, but….)

    I talked to our career center, and they’ve pointed me in the direction of LSAT prep classes, and i’ll probably take some classes on my own online.

    good luck!

    I once read a study that, as a percentage of majors, music majors are accepted to law school at a greater rate than any other major. The BA would have been better preparation but the BME isn’t bad either.

    It’s not great prep for the LSAT but music is excellent prep for the way law school works. In law school, everything rides on that one performance. You prepare for it and then you do it. Sound familiar?

    Moreover – successful law students have to be able to jump out there in front of everyone and risk making a mistake – but not make the mistake. Sound familiar again?

    Prep for the LSAT and apply – someone has to manage those pop stars and deal with copyright law. ?
