Course Description
The Future Lawyers Problem aims to orient students to the field of law. The program covers the due process of law, the many careers in the world of law, the difficult-to-navigate requirements of the application to law schools, and much more. The program enables students to get their first taste of the complex world of pre-law studies and the American legal system. Beginning with civics lessons and the acquaintance of students with the legal system, the program quickly equips students with the skills that they need to read, interpret, and incorporate legal cases into their writing. In addition to fostering these pre-legal skills, students will also get acquainted with pre-law studies and learn strategies to tackle the 'Law School Admissions Test'.
