Re: Rescind offer for C- on thesis?
What school is your UG, what school is the law school, and what is your major. That makes a big difference.

Yeah, because future employers look at TT schools and don't look at your UG. Errs..? Maybe 5 years ago.Leeroy Jenkins wrote:No.lostjake wrote:What school is your UG, what school is the law school, and what is your major. That makes a big difference.

1. Nobody gives a crap about your undergrad school in the real world. Full stop.lostjake wrote:Blow it off. Don't update your LSAC and they will never know. ITE I would question going to law school, but I hope the best of luck to ya!
2. This is some poor advice. The school will have to get your final transcript before you matriculate. I think that probably the grade won't matter though.

He's going into a TT. Have you ever heard of the inertzwebz? He's probably going to go into SL, and yes, laymen will care about your UG degree.
If the school offered your a spot they have to honor that, unless they say otherwise (saying you have to get a certain GPA in your last year)
ALSO
Like I said before, if you have a great UG or great UG major it matters less.

SL=shit law.
Dont plan on going to a T60 school and being $$$$. I'm not sure what your LSAT was, but if you can take a year off pawn the LSAT and get into a T30 you should do it.

It isn't. Lostjake, for some reason, felt it necessary to answer questions you did not ask, for the apparent purpose of confusing you.ssur wrote:So, a poor grade on an optional thesis is or is not going to get an offer rescinded?

Re: Rescind offer for C- on thesis?
Why would this rescind an offer, especially since you're saying that you are graduating with a higher gpa than you were admitted with.. this makes no sense to messur wrote:So, a poor grade on an optional thesis is or is not going to get an offer rescinded?

Your guilty conscience aside, my suspicion is that they actually need a real copy of your final transcript for only two reasons:ssur wrote:I feel like a jerk for failing to complete it in time.

1. To have a record of your transcript on file, since LSDAS does not send the law schools a copy of your transcript.
2. To make sure you did not absolutely tank your last semester.
You ended up with a higher GPA. Your thesis did not play a big part in your acceptance, it did not factor into your scholarship award. You will be ok.
Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Hey I wrote a thesis my senior year too, for some reason. It was a difficult experience. Which is why I can't wait for law school .
