Poast new message in this thread
Date: July 11th, 2017 12:30 AM Author: clear fragrant stage useless brakes Assume: - UG GPA is below 2.0 (yes, below 2.0) - Actual third tier law school (public school, zero BigLaw recruiting, etc.,) - Low 170s LSAT - Very strong "softs" (intern at DA's office, public interest stuff, leadership roles in LS, etc.,)
Do law schools even weigh UG GPA for transfer students? TYIA
*not really URM |

Date: July 11th, 2017 12:32 AM Author: concupiscible idiotic gas station people who are hurt I'd guess LSAT and grades matter far less than law school grades. those are supposed to be predictors of law school success... law school grades are a better representation.

Date: July 11th, 2017 12:34 AM Author: concupiscible idiotic gas station people who are hurt probably a little bit since they were so low, but I'd probably put the rank at the following:
1. Law School Grades
2. LSAT (because this is a standardized score)
3. Undergrad Grades.
I'd guess law school grades = 70% of their considering, LSAT = 20%, Undergrad Grades = 10%. |

Date: July 11th, 2017 12:36 AM Author: concupiscible idiotic gas station people who are hurt yeah that will all help too. they want people who will do stuff with their law degree and get the school's name out there, so the DA stuff will probably help.

You'll probably snag something in the T14 though (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3671514&forum_id=2#33755270) |
