Before interviews, how can I show that my grade is great except one C? Forum

My grades are like this: A, A, A , B+ and C! One C per semester entirely pulls down my semester grades. If a C is excluded, my grade would be like top 15%. If I took another class, I am sure I would get at least an A-. I took unfit classes for my interest or capability in hindsight only because they are tested on the bar. I just realized what type of law I totally suck at.

Is there any way I can explain this ON PAPER - resume or cover letter? My overall grade will prevent me from getting an interview opportunity in the first place and I do need to get an interview. I am a jobless, desperate 3L.

... so you have 5 C's?

I can't think of any good way you could address it.
Of course, even if you could, they probably don't care, you took the classes and got Cs.

If you want you could attach your transcripts to applications even if they don't ask for them I guess, but I don't think anyone is going to particularly care that much which classes you got what grade in compared to your overall GPA.

I'm not sure there's much you can do to head off the issue, and your explanation isn't particularly compelling anyway.
