Updated transcript - opinions please

Post by chihuahua12 » Mon Dec 27, 2010 9:44 pm

First let me give you the background to my situation: I am currently in undergrad. I completed all my applications a while ago and have already heard back from many schools. Out of the schools I have not heard back from, there are three that are among my top choices. For all three, my LSAT is just below the 75, and my GPA is between the 25 and median.

This past semester I did very well, boosting my GPA .07 points. As far as school numbers are concerned, my new GPA would significantly help. I already e-mailed all 3 schools asking that if they had not already made a decision on my application to please wait until they receive my updated transcript.

What are your thoughts on this? Do schools generally honor such requests? Do you think this semester's grades will help?

PM for specifics.

THANKS!
