So my son will start his senior year of HS next week. He thinks that he wants to go to law school eventually, and goes back and forth between focusing on sports management and being an agent vs. criminal defense.

My questions to those of you who've been to law school are,
  • What are the best degrees that would you recommend for undergrad to make him attractive to law schools?
  • What type of undergrad school gives him the best chance of getting into a top law school (let's say top 25-30)?
  • What else would you recommend that he consider when making his choice for undergrad work?
His test scores and grades are high enough that he should be able to get into most universities for his undergrad. He should get some decent scholarship money thrown his way also.

I'm wondering if it's going to benefit him more to spend some of his own money on his undergrad degree at a "more prestigious" school, or does it not really matter and should he get his undergrad where he could do it at the lowest out-of-pocket cost?

Thanks in advance for your insight!
