Re: I am a URM what does this mean for me?
Welcome to the fourm, it will be a bump but not a huge one. As of now you must do two things and two things only. GPA and LSAT. You will want to get your gpa up to at least 3.2 or 3.3 if you could make 3.4 that would be great. Also study study for the LSAT. Get the powerscore books and do lots of practice tests.
