GPA question
My UGPA sucks. After my bachelor's degree I went back to school and got an associate's degree in nursing. My GPA for my RN degree is better. Will that have any affect on my application? Should I write a GPA addendum? Or will the adcomm know from my transcripts?

Re: GPA question
It won't affect your LSAC GPA, unfortunately, since it came after your bachelor's. However, you still need to submit your transcript, which adcomms will see.
I think a GPA addendum should probably only be included if there's a crazy outlier grade (a D in a sea of A's) and/or there is a good reason for mediocre performance (caring for an ill loved one).
