There's actually no specific set of required courses to get into law school. But, here’s what tends to help:
Political Science: Gives you an understanding of government systems.
Philosophy: Sharpens your critical thinking skills.
English: Helps you develop strong writing and reading comprehension.
History: Provides context for legal precedents.
Economics: Useful for understanding complex financial systems.
Building a well-rounded academic background with courses that sharpen your analytical, writing, and critical thinking skills is key. You game?

There are no specific "required" courses for law school. Political Science would be the most aligned but this is not required and would not necessarily even bolster your application on its own. For example, I was a Marketing major in the business school in college - completely unrelated to law school. I think as long as you can clearly articulate your interest in law school and explain why on an application, the major itself does not carry as much weight as you might think. Wishing you lots of luck!
