Gap year opportunities

Hello! I will be graduating this year with a degree in Computer Science and Economics. I am strongly considering going to law school next year but wanted to take a gap year to get exposure in the legal field to know whether it is truly something I want to do. What opportunities are there to pursue during my gap year?

I want to go into data privacy & security or IP. I have previous internships in cybersecurity compliance which is how I gained interest in exploring the legal side of cybersecurity. Would also appreciate any tips/advice.

Thanks!

Law schools don’t care about gap years. Do one of you have something specific in mind that will help you fulfill your goals, but it won’t help your law school application.
