Canadian school's GPA !
Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2011 11:43 pm
I'm from the University of Toronto in Canada, and considering about law school in America.
Since the GPA and grades are different here from the States, so I don't know what I should expect with my GPA, and whether I should take others' GPA in the forum as references.
I'm expecting a 3.2 GPA when I'll apply this winter, this is already worse than lower 25% for most law schools.
However, for my school, with this GPA, I could graduate with Distinction already. So I think this would be top20% in my graduating class.
(since at U of Toronto, the average mark of a course is restricted to C or C+ mostly, i.e. 2.0-2.3 GPA)
So, how would US law school admission treat Canadian GPA?
Thank you.
