Law

Proficiency in German and/or another Germanic language, as well as possessing cultural knowledge about other countries, will be an asset on your law school applications. Law school admissions committees see persistence in learning a foreign language as a serious plus. And, as The Guardian reports, if "you want to work in the competitive legal profession, having foreign language skills can help to set you apart."
