    Yes, on both accounts.

    Academics, make sure they are rigorous and develop your critical thinking, writing, research and communication skills; hence why an art major alone would be worthless, but a double major with history is just fine.

    Finally, remember to work on keeping your GPA up and study for the LSAT.

    Yes, you can major in political science and still go to law school. I am currently in law school and law school admissions welcome all majors. A political science major would help you more during law school then an art history major. :)

    You can major in anything, literally anything, and go to law school. In fact, I have a friend at Stanford Law School who majored in Biology. Do what interests you.

    You can go to law school with any undergrad degree. Poli sci is a very popular one. Art history is not exactly common, but as long as you have good grades and do well on the LSAT, you will be fine.

    Some of the best degrees for law school are actually engineering and math degrees, as these take a great deal of rigor to study and demonstrate advanced logic skills, which are highly valued in law.

    Good luck!
