Is a major in Political Sciences just as good as a major in Criminal Justice for a Pre-Law path?
I have participated in Law and Public Safety classes for the past three years at my high school and plan to become a criminal prosecution attorney #law #political

choose a major that you are passionate about - that will take you the furthest, give you the best grades and form the foundation for your law practice. Law practice covers all areas that you can think of, from helping animals to children to corporations to criminal justice. Your passion will take you far.

Absolutely. Maybe even better as it is a broader area. Unless you know you want to spcialize in criminal law, no need to get too focused in undergraduate courses. You can always take elective courses in criminal justice to round out your course resume for law school applications.
