Yes you can get into law school. (given you do not get arrested for anything in undergrad) If you do get arrested in the future you will not be able to pass the bar because they do a criminal background check and do not give licenses to practice law to felons. Be careful and realize the consequences of your actions in the future because it can cause you your future)

Yes, after you earn a bachelors degree (4 yr) with a major and minor and work to do your best. I suggest you meet with an academic advisor to plan your course of studies. They are very helpful and their services are free.
Did you know you can save money on tuition by attending a community college the first 2 years, and then transferring your college level credits to a 4 yr. institution? It is a great way to go.
Best wishes.

Well, you don't go to law school until after you get a regular 4-year college degree -- so you have time to mend your ways :) I don't see any reason why you couldn't get into law school, just buckle down and do well in college, get a BA in something you find interesting, and apply!
Good luck.

Absolutely. You can even screw up in college and still make it. Showing dramatic improvements in grades tells admissions ppl that you grew up and are a much better candidate than someone w/ the same average GPA w/ some bad grades sprinkled throughout their college career.
