Hello,

I am currently in a masters program and I was wondering if it matters if I get a couple of B's. I got all A's last term but I am concerned namely because I had a nice GPA in undergrad (3.87) in a tough major (biochemistry) and I don't want a "downward trend" to be a factor for me not getting admitted. I read that the LSAC only considers undergraduate GPA but they still ask for graduate school transcripts. I know the LSAT counts a lot as well (I haven't taken it yet) but I would still want my grades to be an asset. If it matters, I am shooting for a top school.

Thanks a lot!

Your 3.87 undergraduate GPA and future LSAT score will matter far, far more than a couple of Bs in Grad school.

they are not factored in to your LSDAS GPA which is what law schools consider. The only thing they would care about at all would probably be if you failed out of your grad program or something.
