What Class's should I take in High School to become a lawyer?

Question

I am starting High School and I want to be a lawyer and I was wondering from any actual lawyers if there are any classes I should take to help me on my way.

Answer 1

I really would not worry about the course of study at this point.  I would focus on making your studies as rigorouss as possible and finding things that you are passionate in.  

When you are in college I would suggest taking the philosophy course "introduction to logic" the logic puzzles that you have to complete are similar in construction to many of the law school arguments that you would have to make in the future.  

Oh and don't forget to enjoy your high school and college careers, if you wait until law school there simply will not be time to enjoy being young and having fun.      

Answer 2

History,Some club involving law, government, Criminal Justice...Ect.

Answer 3

Honestly, nothing that you do in high school is going to affect your entrance into law school.

Your undergraduate GPA and Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) score are going to be the two primary factors.  Your undergraduate GPA should be over 3.5 and your LSAT score should be over 160.

Law schools do not even look at your high school transcripts or what you did.
