Do US Law Schools Factor in Upward Trends in GPA?

Post by lll7 » Sun May 29, 2016 3:50 pm

I really want to go to a good law school in Cali. My cGPA from the University of Toronto is a 3.65 but my GPA for the last three years, out of the four, is above a 3.85 (haven't calculated the exact number yet).

Do LSs consider upward trends?

Not as much as many applicants seem to think. But it is better than a downward trend, says Mr. Obvious.
