Addendum for C-?

Post by Dcc617 » Thu Jul 30, 2015 3:08 pm

Good afternoon all. I wanted to get some thoughts about whether there is an expectation for an addendum for a low grade.

Long story short, my last grade in college was a C-. I didn't think it was right, but I had to choose between accepting it without an explanation or else delaying my graduation. Obviously I was going to graduate.

I don't want to write an addendum because I don't have a good reason and I don't want to draw attention to it. Is there an expectation among law schools for one?

Sorry if this question is overly neurotic...

No.

And saying this as an overly neurotic person, your post is overly neurotic.

No reason to write one. A lone bad grade isn't going to kill you. Ultimately, schools only care about your cumulative GPA and LSAT.

This sounds like something Lisa Simpson would ask, but OP, nah you don't need an addendum

I appreciate the responses. I blame this thread on the government. I'm getting out of the military in a couple of months, so I don't have anything to do at work but sit on a computer and get all spun up about law school applications.

Do random things too. Like watch sitcom reruns or sports. Hit people up, etc.
