I'm wondering if law school admissions will consider this demanding/difficult. I guess I'd like to know whether this major will strengthen my 3.08 GPA, weaken it, or have no affect. (I know... LSAT prep has made me insufferable) I can tell you that Journalism was tough for me.
People feel free to post the major you'd like to know
A lot of majors are demanding. The concern is over ones that are more demanding than the typical major. So, you needn't feel bad because it was demanding for you but not demanding relative to the range of possible majors. Also, some majors at some schools are more demanding than others.BigA wrote:I am a journalism major. I'm wondering if law school admissions will consider this demanding/difficult.

I don't even know. It was when I wanted to be a park ranger. I only took three classes. One of them was called "The Challenges of Leisure". It was awesome.holydonkey wrote:What does someone study in recreation? What type of coursework?
