RELATED COURSEWORK

Law schools seek students with strong liberal arts backgrounds who can write, think analytically, and be creative.

Creativity and law…? It's not the stretch it might appear to be. Creativity and innovation in law is essential. To create, compare, and assemble ideas, and then to express them as a coherent, persuasive argument are fundamental skills for pre-law students, for law students, and for lawyers
