<p>As an Emory alum now in law school, your question is pretty silly. Not because it isn’t valid, but because the answer is that it just plain doesn’t matter. </p>
<p>No, seriously. If you are planning on law school, it doesn’t matter. There are only two factors that determine whether or not you will get into law school: LSAT score and GPA. Nothing else. Not extracurricular stuff, not your undergrad university (unless a top-tier Ivy or something, in which case it might matter a little but still not very much).</p>
<p>If law school is your goal, I suggest you go to whichever of the two is most affordable, so that you’ll be in a position to take out loans for the best law school that offers you admission. Focus on getting a high GPA (even if it’s a really easy major) and honors. Take an LSAT prep course your junior year, and study your ass off for that test. That’s all you need. Trust me, you’ll thank me for this advice in 4 years.</p>
<p>Don’t worry about “preparing” for law school. You don’t need any kind of “preparation.” The only preparatory experience I would suggest is that you work as a paralegal for a year after you graduate to see if you REALLY want to be a lawyer. But that’s it.</p>
