[$ummer<3]

be able to debate?
Is it necessary to be on the debate team if I want to go into law?
What extra stuff would be useful to go into this career?

It is helpful, if you plan on doing cases in court, but no a requirement.

 

[Yak Rider]

No. There are many kinds of lawyers. Some speak in court, others never see the inside of a court room.

1. Yes
2. Not necesary but may be advisable, what do you have to lose?
3. English, both grammar and literature.
