Ask a College Student

[Jenny A]

In all seriousness, how long does a law degree take?

Nothing like med school.  In the U.S. it's a three year graduate degree.  So seven years all together, four for the BA and three for law school.  Most law student don't actually major in pre-law.  Philosophy, government, international relations, business, history, psychology, and English are all common pre-law majors.  But some of my classmates had a BA in things like: organic chemistry, engineering, or in one case theology.
