Which GPA do law schools report on their page? (25%-Median-75% GPA Report)On law school website for the 25%-Median-75% GPA report, are the GPA that they have listed there the LSAC GPA or the Transcript GPA?
It is the LSAC GPA but only the "cumulative" GPA listed on LSAC. The degree GPA is _not_ reported.
