You have to finish a bachelors degree (4 years) first and then law school. That will be 3 more years.
If you're in the US, the classes you take in high school will not matter for law school. You will not have to report your high school classes or grades to the law schools you are applying to. You will have to send your undergraduate transcript to law schools. You would be well advised to take classes that are challenging but that you enjoy. You do not need to have any specific major to get into law school. So if you take classes you like, you will do well in them and will get good grades, which will improve your chances of getting into law school.
Don't take classes in high school to prepare yourself for law school, except perhaps a government class if it is not required curriculum. Take classes about subjects that you are interested in. You'll learn plenty about the law in law school. ========================= I concur. The same goes for your university studies. Law schools aren't interested in what subjects you studied. They are interested in what your grades are.
I think that you are asking what classes you can take in high school if you want to be a criminal lawyer, so this is the question that I will answer. Really, in high school, there aren't many classes that are related to criminal law. When I was in high school, there were a few classes that touched on criminal law such as my business law class and my sociology class. I would encourage you to look into some local community colleges that allow you to attend classes for high school credit. Many community colleges offer criminal justice or criminology classes which will prepare you for similar classes in college and in law school. Good luck!
A law school program is satisfactory to become a litigation attorney. Along with general law classes those specializing in litigation take classes in real estate law, occupational safety, regulatory law and business ethics.
The classes you take in Junior High are not a factor. The classes you take in high school do not really affect your ability to become an attorney. And, believe it or not, the classes you take in college don't really matter. Law students can have just about any degree and go to law school. I was an engineer with no thoughts of law school when I got out of college.
Getting into law school is very competitive. Although criminal justice classes are not required, taking the any criminal justice classes as well as the necessary LSAT will give you an advantage in the application process.
Harvard doesn't offer many credits online to begin with. The Harvard Law School doesn't offer any accredited classes online.
There are no specific classes required in the US. Most require completion of a bachelor's degree.
You should, of course, take a law class. If they do not have one; look for a different school.
Doesn't matter. As long as you have graduated, you can apply to law school. Good grades are more important then the subject, harder subjects are better.
