<p>According to your post, you are a freshman at one of the top undergraduate schools in the country, and you want to choose an “easy” major, so you can get a good GPA and get into a top Law School.</p>
<p>For your sake, and Stanford’s, I’m hoping you’re just having a little angst because the intro econ courses there are very hard…and you probably have to study in a way that’s different than you studied in HS. Hope you’re going to the TA’s office hours, and have found a group to study with.</p>
<p>You have general ed requirements to fill at Stanford, and don’t have to choose a major until the end of your sophomore year. If you choose what you consider to be an “easy” major, you’ll still have to take courses in other areas. If you choose to take all “easy” courses…and there aren’t that many at Stanford…you may be surprised to learn that most of the top law schools will be able to figure that out from your transcript.</p>
<p>I’m trying not to be too harsh here, but…if your goal is to have a good GPA and have lots of time to study for the LSAT, maybe Stanford isn’t the right undergraduate school for you. Try to work through the difficult adjustment to college academic life to make the most of an opportunity literally thousands of kids would have liked to have.</p>
