My current University GPA is a 3.94 which could basically get me into any law school if my other factors are good enough. The only problem is that I took dual credit courses in high school that will lower my LSAC GPA to a 3.7. I started dual credit my freshman year of high school, so I was only 15 years old when I earned the majority of these poor grades. Any reasonable person could assume that the bad grades I made when I was 15 and fresh out of middle school do not reflect my performance as a law student/lawyer, especially considering that my university GPA is a 3.9. Complaining aside, my genuine question is: will law schools take this into consideration? Or will they just look at my 3.7 and immediately dismiss me?

I know a 3.7 can still get me into law school but all my dream schools have 3.8 or 3.9 medians. I'm feeling extremely discouraged because I totally forgot about these dual credit grades until now. I've been studying extra hard to meet these schools median LSATs and now it feels kind of pointless. Any insight into the brains of admissions councils will help!!
