i'm not really a sportsy person but i like doing clubs like business or debate. what if i don't make a sport at all? would the colleges not accept me because of that?

When you apply to law schools, they will look at your college records. They do not ask about (and do not care about) anything that you did in high school.
The same is true for other graduate programs.

Of course not. What sports (and other group activities like debate, chess, business, etc) teach are the ability to work well together in a group setting, as a team. That's the skill you need to work well in any business/law setting, or actually anywhere in life.
Obviously, extracurricular activities showing up on your transcripts will make you more attractive to any college.

save up the coolest artwork! It seems such as you're doing remarkable! colleges seek for rather some different factors. they look at such issues as what courses you have taken, how your grades are, what you scored on your ACT/SAT (which would be taken around your junior year of highschool), your extra curriculars, what sort of person you're alongside with different issues i'm particular. they do no longer carry rather some those factors as standards for making it into college. i'm at present a sophomore attending a particularly prestigious college in my section. i replaced into on your place in extreme college; I made superb grades, i replaced into in contact, yet i did no longer play activities. i in my view did no longer worry approximately this although. maximum prestigious colleges are not produced from one hundred% athletes. I utilized to lots of the terrific colleges in the country and thankfully I have been given right into some and chosen the guy who presented the main scholarship money and the only closest to abode. luckily it replaced into the only I enjoyed the main. make certain which you do bypass to all potential colleges whilst the time comes (you nonetheless have a mutually as to bypass) and don't %. based off of status. I chosen a much less prestigious college than yet another one I have been given into yet i like it right here. considerable techniques: a million. save your grades up 2. it incredibly is not inevitably what proportion extracurriculars you're in, yet rather how committed you will properly be to even only one or 2. positioned your all into them and which will extremely make a distinction. 4. Get good ACT/SAT rankings. this would on the instant qualify or disqualify you from a school accepting you. it is to no longer say you won't be able to get it, yet you have gotten slightly extra to combat against. 3. Love the college you will bypass to. All in all good success! save up the coolest artwork and that i wish you the terrific!

Well as far as your undergrad goes...you can get that in anything you want to before going to law school. Since you go to Law School after four years of college, they honestly really don't look at it....Perfect example: cousin got straight C's in HS and never left the couch, is now a professor of Law at Notre Dame, but he got straight A's in college.
