Will a Discovery Credit Look Bad on Law School Applications?

May 14 in Law School Admissions 9 karma

At my university, we have discovery credits, which allow us to designate 1.0 credits of undergraduate courses as pass/fail on transcripts. Having recently completed my fourth year, I'm considering utilizing one of these credits for a course from last semester, which would boost my GPA. However, I'm curious about whether law schools might view the use of discovery credits unfavorably. If anyone has experience with this, please let me know (I am applying solely to canadian schools). Thank you.
