Undergraduate major to help law school

Okay, I need help! I'm from Indiana and I'm currently attending Ben Davis University High School ( it's a early college high school) I decided that I would attend IUPUI and that I would be a lawyer. Now, I know that lawyers need to excel at analytical and logical thinking, and have a high enough scores to be admitted into law school. I'm torn bewteen two majors: philosophy and political science. I've been hearing that both majors are extremely helpful, but I like both majors. What should I do?

ANY liberal arts major will do. Personally, I think Philosophy is phenomenal for teaching critical thinking skills. But major in what you like. Perhaps the Poli Sci professors are 'better' teachers? If so, go there.

Thanks. I've been researching a little bit and as it turns out, philosophy majors score the highest on the LSAT.
