I recently realized that all undergrad grades are computed in LSAC GPA, which makes total sense, but means that my reported gpa is lower as I transferred schools after my freshman year. I was doing a sport at a D1 level which meant my grades suffered a bit (not a ton but enough to lower my gpa below most top 20 medians). I am aiming to score as high as possible on the LSAT as I know that will only help me in this case but I'm wondering if my only chances for top 20/30 school admissions are slim even with a high lsat if my gpa is below median or even 25th percent. How much do top schools value gpa addendums, am I being unrealistic expecting consideration from top schools? My gpa trended upward - ending at 3.8-4.0 for my last few semesters that focused on my specific major courses. I am 2+ years out of college and have since held jobs in the legal field and have strong professional recs but I'm aware that that won't help school stats or medians so just trying to figure out how to approach applications. Also will LSAC only evaluate the credits that transferred from my first institution that were awarded to my degree? Or is it every course I have taken regardless of whether it was accepted as a credit by my second institution?
