Hello! I know there are a TON OF posts about this topic but I just wanted to see if anyone has any opinions/gotten into law school with the similar circumstances.
I have a dual degree in Cell biology and Women’s studies and ended up with a 2.8 cumulative gpa. If I removed all of my science classes, my gpa would be about aBout a 3.8 (not sure if this matters at all). Since graduating, I have been working for a large medical device company in quality on a large project. By the time I apply, I would have been in the industry for 2 years. I eventually want to get into patent/intellectual property law. I am retaking the lsat again this fall and am aiming for ~165 + .
Has anyone else gotten into a good school with a low gpa, a better than average lsat and work experience?
Are there certain schools that really value work experience?
All opinions are appreciated! Thank you!
I have been out of undergrad for a year. If i get in to the next cycle, it will have been 1.5 years. @ctsoucalas903 . You can absolutely DM me! I'd love to discuss the field with you!
Hello. I know there are a lot of splitter posts here, but i wanted some feedback on my particular situation. I graduated a year ago with a dual degree in women's studies and biology. I am not gifted in math or science, but i really pushed through and graduated, This however brought my GPA down to a 2.8. My major gpa for women's studies is a 3.99 while my biology gpa is about a 2.1. I have been working for a large medical device company for a year now. I am taking my LSAT in January and was wondering what LSAT score I would need to best boost that low gpa. I know i should try my hardest to break 170, but I'd just like to know if anyone with a low STEM undergrad gpa got into a top school and is so, what your lsat score was. Thank you!
@insidesurgery489 I have only been out for a year, but am already on multiple projects which I am excelling on! Thank you for your input!
