This summer I decided to take a course to catch up on credits, and I just got my grade back. It was a B and my GPA tanked fairly significantly. However, the grade came out after OCI applications were due, so my question is whether or not I have to tell the interviewers my new GPA during the interview.
I guess some background info. could be useful. I go to a T1, strong regional, and my GPA went from a 3.6 to a 3.5, which took me out of the top %20.

Re: OCI Interview - GPA Issue
That's a very narrow question - you might ask career services or students at your school. I've never heard of summer law courses, but if your school has them and 1Ls can take them, surely there's a standard expectation for what you do for OCI.

Re: OCI Interview - GPA Issue
It's not necessarily standard, because I'm switching from part-time to full-time...if that helps
