Often law students expect a large payoff in terms of salary when they graduate and feel entitled to treat themselves well during school. The payoff is not immediate upon graduation and you may experience a lifestyle that is very different from what you imagined once you have graduated. Take a tough academic curriculum and develop excellent writing skills while an undergraduate. While there is no one major that prepares students for law school, taking on an academic program that is challenging can help prepare a student for the rigors of law school. If one is thinking about the field of intellectual property law, a science or engineering degree is important to have.
Good writing is an important skill for lawyers.
Lawyers write all the time and how well one writes can make the difference between whether the client wins or not. If you have any doubts about your writing ability, I encourage you to seek assistance to improve it now. It will enhance your abilities and marketability in the long run. Be knowledgeable about what is happening in the world. Becoming focused on one's immediate surroundings is easy while a student.
