Appeals

Post by Jim7shen » Mon May 23, 2016 6:52 pm

Hi does anybody know how the elite schools look at appealed grades? My GPA is 3.72 but I can appeal 2 classes and was told I would win and my GPA would get bumped to approx 3.80. But I'm nervous that it would look funny on my application.

Mind expanding on that? Changing 2 grades can look fishy... Just to put this into context I got a 174 on LSAT

Basically the only two things that schools care about are your actual GPA number and your LSAT score.

Appeal away. It's about the final number.
