I am a freshmen criminal justice major. I plan on going to law school after i finish my undergraduate. I have herd from numerous people that the hardest part is getting in, and the first year, but buy amoxicillin online if you make it through the first year then most likely you will graduate. As for now I want to do criminal cases, but I don’t really know what other types of lawyers there are.
Any info would be great.

Hi fellow Criminal Justice major….
I have also pondered at the SAME exact question that you have in my early college years.
The BEST advice I have to you is to keep those grades at 3.5 or higher for a law school to glance at your application. Also, find places that will help you to prepare for the LSAT (the exam you take to get into law school) as soon as your sophmore year in college. Philosophy courses are a Great way to prepare for some of the material found on the LSAT ( & there is room to take these courses under the Criminal Justice major at most colleges)
There are many law schools out there but it is important to evaluate your school for your undergraduate degree. I was told by not 1 but 5 professors that law schools DO look at where you graduated as a factor in determining whether or not you get in. Sad but true. My best advice to you is if you can & are able to transfer to “well-known” college with a great curciculum for your major then DO IT! If you are not able to, make sure that you keep your gpa at the highest level you can. But most importantly, GET INVOLVED! Experience is excellent way to display your skills on paper. It doesn’t have to be in the biggest organizations, but even the smaller ones count. College is about getting involved, gaining experience, and learning.
Don’t stress about what is ahead of you, just help to prepare for your future by giving it the best you got today.
Law school is not that hard, except for the first year. The first year is the most difficult because you aren’t sure what the professor is expecting. If you want to be a criminal lawyer, I suggest you check out relentlessdefense.com. Good luck.
i have heard that many law school accept student mainly because they have the money…(private.. maybe)
so if you have the money you could get in but i’m not sure ….
i have also heard that many law students become in debt and many have a hard time finding a job and paying off their huge debt…
sorry this is all ive heard..
