Do some research and figure out what kind of lawyer you think you might want to be. There are many specialties and one or two may fit you better than others. Then, make yourself aware of what's going on in those areas of the law--what the rules and policies are, how things are changing.

Lawyers need to be excellent communicators, both written and verbal, so take whatever opportunities that come your way to improve those skills, especially debate, logical discourses, research.

Prepare to work long, stressful hours in order to meet deadlines. Hone your people skills so you can build your professional network.

Keep your grades up! Plan to go to a good college and get a solid undergrad degree.

I hope some of this helps you as you make your plans and set your goals. Good luck!

Join debating societies, practise listening to people, play intellectually challenging games and avoid any legal misdemeanours, which, in Australia could preclude you from entering the legal profession. I presume the same applies in your country.
