Math majors tend to score the highest on the LSAT.
Not sure how well that translates to bar rates.

Elec Eng.
Undergrad degree means 0 unless you’re doing a specialization which I won’t mention

A theologian of fricking meshes well with practicing law. It is all about who gets fricked first and who gets fricked hardest.

Criminal Justice.
Pre-law wasn’t an option and knew I was going to law school and thought I was going to practice criminal law. Helped on that side of law school even though I went the other direction after law school.
English is helpful considering the reading and writing.
Economics/Finance are great if you get your MBA as well. You become very marketable.
Philosophy/political science are pretty good too.
Really just depends on what field you plan to go in. Although, that doesn’t always work out.

Just curious since pre-law doesn’t mean much more than “intending to apply to law school.”
My wife had a degree in Journalism with a minor in History. Prepared her well for law school and her eventual successful career.

Communication Studies. Never thought of going to law school until five years after undergrad.

Poli sci and religious studies with lots of Latin. I think the most important prep for law school is logical reasoning and anything that trains you rigorously to analyze problems and write about the issues clearly.
