Do most schools care about your undergrad GPA after admission? I'm in my last semester of undergrad, and of course I don't plan on bombing my last semester, but I was wondering if schools care about the GPA on your final transcript.

Has anyone heard from GULC recently (within the last 2 weeks?)
I know they've reached out twice in the last week to those on the waitlist. One through video and another with a follow up email about expressing interest. Basically just telling everyone to sit tight until after their first deposits on May 1st.
Thanks for the comments everyone! I'm starting to hear back from schools and I applied as a "reverse splitter" to some schools so GPA is really important in my case. I guess after I finished worrying about studying for the LSAT and finally hearing back from schools I looked for something else to worry over! I guess it all just comes down to checking with the school you're accepted into.
I'm currently taking the course and he's been pretty responsive (usually no longer than 24hrs for a response). We emailed back and forth and he used the email that akistotle mentioned.
The power of replication! 100 Davids showing us mere mortals how it's really done.

You can't apply ED to Georgetown and then apply ED to another school, unless Georgetown rejects you first. They're explicit about this: https://www.law.georgetown.edu/admissions-financial-aid/jd-admissions/full-time-program//Apply-Early-Decision.cfm
It's true that you'll decrease your chances of getting scholarship money if you apply ED to Georgetown, but it really does seem to boost your chances. Think about it!
Does ED increase your chances if you're below a school's medians, or is it meant to attract those with stronger applications?
I've gotten a lot of info from Barbri Law Preview. Has anyone had any experience with that course?
@ thanks! I got kind of nervous when I started connecting the dots (as I should have a long time ago). I just don't want to sign up for a test that won't be beneficial for me if I am trying to apply this cycle.
I just recently sat for the December test and want to take it again in February for good measure. The December test will be my first official LSAT. A lot of school's I am interested in have deadlines of March 1st, but I've heard that schools will hold an application if they see you're signed up for another test. I was just wondering if it works the same if you are signed up for a February test.
Congrats!! Hard work paid off!!
