i had a 4.0 first semester, and then a 3.4 the next semester. Overall GPA is now 3.6 which is still 10%.
will firms look at that negatively during OCI? i.e. will this lower my chances even though i am top 10%?
I am at a T30.
How will a drop in GPA from 1st to 2nd semester at T30 look? Forum

Depends on the firm but in general it prob matters more what the overall rank is than individual GPAs esp if you're top 10%.Anonymous User wrote:i had a 4.0 first semester, and then a 3.4 the next semester. Overall GPA is now 3.6 which is still 10%.

Law firms will treat you as though you have a 3.6 GPA. That's it.
