Do law schools generally waitlist applicants pending updated transcripts?
The thing is, with a 166 [and if i don't retake in Oct.], i would be relying heavily on my GPA as a bargaining chip for some schools, and maybe admissions will want to know if i'll be able to complete my last 2 semesters as strongly, before they make a decision. It's kind of a big 'if' because i'll be doing 18 credits in each of these semesters, all upper level courses. I've only done one other semester of 18 credits before, and these were all lower level courses.
Please note: a year off is not an option (too damn old already
