Top Law Schools

Thanks.

Classes will count up until your first degree is awarded. IMO the gpa boost would be worth it but there would be a lot of other factors in play, such as cost, etc.

Depends on your goals, and lsat. But generally yeah that would be a significant increase for t13 admissions. No one except schools your gpa already precludes you from will care much about gpa padding, and yes write the addendum, but also understand a strong addendum doesn't make up for the number, just explains it.

from what i've learned on here, numbers are the big thing, so anything to increase your numbers is usually a good deal.

Yeah, I do understand that. Justification wasn't the word I should've used. *an addendum explaining it.

Thanks for the responses.

When are you planning on taking the lsat?

Sometime between this October and next June, though.

Do as much as you can without sacrificing studying for the lsat. while a 3.3 is nice, a 170+ is better. I was in the mirror position when I entered by final year and managed pulling my gpa up from a 2.95 to a ~3.2 while studying for the lsat. It may mean staying in when your friends/frat/sorority party. But it's 100% worth it.

Do whatever is takes to raise your GPA (including all the measures outlined in the OP) while studying to crush the LSAT.

A 3.4 over a 3.0 changes your admissions cycle dramatically, if you can score a 170+ LSAT.
