do i have to have a poli sci/ prelaw degree if i want to be a lawyer?

My parents are pushing for me to do business as an undergrad, as they say that if i change my mind about being a lawyer, i'll still be able to get a high paying job and if i do become a lawyer, the knowledge i'll gain from the business degree will help me in real estate/tax/ etc law. My teacher who used to be a lawyer, agrees. Is this true?? or will law schools prefer students who take political science instead? or could i do business and minor in political science and still be looked favorably upon for law school admissions ??
Thanks
