For pre-law, you should include courses such as logic, government, history and areas of study that require a great deal of reading, writing and critical thinking. You can join the Pre-Law Society and, in the way of preparation, join the Barkley Forum, Emory's award-winning debate team. Learn about pre-law advising.

“Pursuing a liberal arts education at Emory allowed me and forced me to take a variety of classes. As a litigator I have used my liberal arts education to relate with people about a variety of subjects, and it impacts my professional success.
“The more knowledge I have about a variety of subjects, the more likely it is that I will relate with other people. My ability to reference philosophers brings respect from opposing counsel. And my understanding of religion from an Emory class impressed a client who felt he could now trust me.”
