Double major in law/letters/society and political Science

<p>OK, fair enough. Here are two previous threads that will tell you something:</p>

<p>As is indicated therein, I have met a bunch of students who are interested in the LLSO program, but many fewer who actually apply, and fewer still (none, to be precise, although I know they exist) who actually complete the program. I’ll bet far fewer than 25 people per year graduate with an LLSO major, although I think admission to it is competitive (i.e., well more than 25 people/year apply).</p>

<p>It does look like it ought to be easy to double-major from, since there is really only one required course, and there are enormous overlaps with almost any other social science or humanities major. There may be limits on how many courses you can double-count, and saying you intend to double-major may reduce the chances your application to the major will be accepted. (But maybe not; maybe that would help. If anyone knows, he or she should correct this.) </p>

<p>It’s a really interesting, unique, very UChicago program, but it’s not something that will make your law school application any more attractive than it would be otherwise.</p>
