Exchange Program GPA. Please help!

Post by candy1234 » Fri Apr 29, 2011 1:42 am

Hello,

Im doing an exchange program in Asian country. Their GPA system is SO different from LSAC (4.0 for A+, 3.0 for A, 2.0 for B..) and so my gpa on transcript is 3.7 (6 A+s with 2 As) but LSAC GPA is 4.23.

How will LSAC report it as?
are there any ppl going to law school from Asian universities? How did you guys' GPA turn into?

--

Also, I heard I need not report my exchange program GPA if my exchange program is less than a year. So IF my GPA will be reported as 3.7 on LSAC, will I be wise to quit the exchange program now (the second semester hasnt been begun) if my original GPA at home institution is higher? Because if I get like 10 A+s with 4As and end up like 3.6 after the second semester, my LSAC GPA will go down, which will not occur if I quit the program now (because i need not report anyways).

Thank you
