Top Law Schools

Well guys, in light of my earlier topic I have a question. I also think I know what you're going to say. I'm a POLY SCI major and after next semester I'll only have 6 credits left for Poly Sci (that's 2 classes at my school). Yet I'll only have around 75/122 needed to graduate...does this mean I can just take a shitload of easy electives at this point? It'd be easy to ace them all and get out of here with a 3.8+ GPA. Will top law schools care that my entire senior year and second half of junior year was "stat padding", so to speak, with easy non-major classes? I figure the lessened load will also make it easier to study for LSAT senior year too.

So...is it fun time?

Enjoy your basket-weaving courses. Law schools only care about your GPA.

Alright...so "Mayan Apocalypse", "Bizzare Foods", and "History of the Beatles" all get checks...

This made my day.

Are you not factoring in the almost always required gen-ed classes? People could easily fulfill just degree requirements in a year, it's often the required math,sci,etc classes that hurt GPAs.
