Help with choosing between LSAT or GMAT!

[wallstreetking]

Hey guys new to this forum, really like it.

I was wondering if anyone has taken the LSAT and the GMAT (Which are the two tests I'm torn between taking)

I'm fresh out of undergraduate with a BS in finance and a BS in economics.

I'd like to go to Wall Street, however Corporate or Securities Law has suddenly perked my interest. Tuition and fees are very expensive these days so I dont want to waste time...

Any ideas?

Thanks!

It depends on where you want to go to school. In terms of applicability to graduate programs, they are both rather limited... business schools with GMAT & law schools with LSAT.

So first, decide which program you want to do! Start talking to professors in each subject to learn more about them (if you're not already). If you want to do both, you will have to take both tests obviously. I took the GMAT, not the LSAT. No LSAT-style logic on GMAT, just some straightforward math & grammatical / reading-style verbal.

PS- I thought most Econ degrees were BAs! Any particular reason at your school that made the degree "of science"?

I'd say if you have tried everything and still can't decide, then find a school that offers a combined JD/MBA or LLB/MBA. Take both tests, get two degrees, and the world is at your fingertips.
