Hey all,
took the October lsat and waiting on baited breath.
I'm having some transcript confusion and was wondering what you all thought.
I spent the first 3 years of undergrad at an unaccredited institution with a 4.0 GPA
I then transferred to an Accredited college (who accepted those credits but without GPA) and will be granted a bachelors by the end of this year. The issue is I just started at the accredited place and don't have any transcripts from them yet.
Basically I'm wondering if I just send LSAC the credits from my first college (the unaccredited one) will they count that as a real GPA.
Thanks 🙏
In most roles out there there are elements and necessary skills that would pertain to working as a lawyer, albeit not directly. Focusing on your passion for law is for sure a play, but you can still highlight certain specific aspects of say your Client Relationship Specialist position and how you feel those skills would pertain to being a lawyer (e.g. Developing relationships etc.)
I belive Law Schools care less about a legal background and more about making sure you have the right mindset and necessary tools to thrive once in a legal environment (Law Firm etc.)
