Me too :( At first I was worried about being below median, and now I'm even more worried about being below a 3.0. Good luck though!!

dB, do you know how we check our grades when they come out? Thanks!

It seems like they should just be posted on opus, but I'm not 100% about that, because lwrap still isn't. Best case scenario neither of us figure it out and simply never look at our grades?

I was doing fine with holiday festivities and applying for summer jobs to distract me, but now that those are over, I'm bored out of my mind, and coupled with the fact that 5 out of 6 sections have already gotten at least one grade (with mine being the 1 that didn't) is really starting to frustrate me.

I'd really like to get moving on the job process, but I really have no idea where I stand right now, and where I should be focusing my job search. And I don't want to be distracted by stuff like that once school starts.

Take a shot, check the grade. Repeat as necessary.

Just got another grade back.

"Satisfied" for my 1-day-0-credit-hour professionalism class.

What a waste of a near heart attack.

Thanks! That's what I was thinking too, but I was kind of confused for the same reason. Oh well, at least we're confused together?

Your school should provide cutoffs. At my school, they only do the precise rank through like the top 5-10%. Then you just get the percentile cutoffs.

Check the main site for your law school and look through stuff for current students maybe, that is where we have a PDF file available for checking the cutoffs. Or maybe email someone at your school?

A+ in Contracts. Didn't make an outline. Fucked four chicks this semester. Smoked weed every day.

LWR not in yet, but it's not in GPA anyway

Crim: A
CivPro: A-
Property: B+

all in all very happy, but kind of disappointed about my Property final... it was by far my favorite class, and I thought I nailed the final

You may not complain. It isn't permitted with a 3.67 GPA.
