The Association of American Law Schools emphasizes that no single course of study is required for admission to law school. Rather, the Association stresses the importance of a broadly based undergraduate program that includes training in analytical reasoning and writing. Specifically, the Association recommends courses in the following areas: English language and literature; political science; American history; macro and microeconomics; statistics; accounting; computer science; and a host of other fields. In short, it is less important which college major the pre-law student chooses than that he or she choose a major of intensity and depth that demonstrates his or her capacity to perform well at an academically rigorous level.
