Im a senior in high school, and am a little confused with the entire law school thing. I was thinking that it would be something I would want to do for a career, and am starting to research this.

My question is this. Is law school only something you do after you have completed the standard 4 year college? Im applying to a ton of schools right now (UCLA, U Texas Austin, etc.) and a lot of them have good law programs, but from what I understand I just choose another major and after I complete my 4 years I can apply to go to law school there, right?

So, if I am understanding this correctly, I should select the major that I like the most (either engineering or architecture) and complete my 4 years in this field, then when I am done with that, I have to reapply and use my college GPA along with LSAT scores to get in.

Is this correct? Thanks for any help.
