Low GPA

cjoystanna · June 21

Hi. I have a lower undergrad gpa (3.4) and am aiming for top 35-ish range of law schools. I know I need my lsat to be in the high 160s and I think this is doable, but i'm extremely worried about the gpa. I am 2 years out of (a semi-prestigious) school. Any suggestions?

Have strong supplemental essays/personal statements. A section on applications allows you to explain why some of your grades may be lower than other applicants. However, I think it's only best to do that section if you have legitimate reasons, so don't BS it. Good luck!

Howdy, Stranger!
