Post by justwondering123 » Tue May 31, 2011 6:58 pm

can any international students give me any information on the lsac grade ranking...like what your grades were and your ranking if possible thanks guys..

LSAC send them to a third party for equating. ITs hard to predict.

you can try to evaluate your transcripts through them just to see how they do it. I cost $190 (course-by-course evaluation), they also have some other options on their website. I did it when I was trying to transfer some credits from my school overseas to US school.

I don't think so... Otherwise everybody would try to challenge their rankings.. you just need to hope you get the ranking you deserve. I was happy with mine.
