Due to financial reasons during my undergrad career, there were points where I was working 25-35 hours a week while attending class full-time. I also had to finish my 4 year degree in 3.5 years for the same reasons. My GPA is slightly above the median GPA for the school that I am targeting, but I do think if I didn't have to deal with those financial situations that my GPA would be higher. Do you think it would be beneficial to have a GPA addendum for such a case? I don't want to seem that I'm making excuses either. My LSAT is at the median score for my first choice school by the way. Any thoughts/insight would be appreciated!

Hello all!

I have another addendum question. I know this may have been answered in previous discussions, but I wanted to get a clarification just in case. I received my CAS academic summary report and my GPA has fallen by .1. LSAC doesn't count grades received from studying at a foreign institution and my grades during my semester abroad, which were pretty strong, have been discarded. Would it be beneficial to write an addendum? I know that the admission committees receive copies of our official transcripts, but I'm not sure how much attention they really give them.

Thanks in advance for any help!
