Which Minor Would Be Most Helpful? Forum

Why choose? If your goal is mental preparation, not degree value, just take classes in each, even if that doesn't get you a minor.

Definitely agree with this, but if you're set on a minor choose philosophy. Not only does taking logic make the logic games a lot more intuitive, but logical reasoning is a breeeeze if you end up being good at philosophy.

Most definitely - Law Schools will care very little if you have a minor (or which minor you have). If anything, you should take classes that give you the highest possible GPA.

I'm aware that Adcomms couldn't care less what I minor in. For my own purposes, though, I'm torn between Economics and Philosophy. Which, in your opinion, would be more helpful to have on my utility belt when trying to understand the law in a few years?

Edit: Clarity.

You see, this is exactly what I'm talking about.
