I think they want to know if you went to a place that hands out A's like candy.

I also think it's optional, so unless you really want to emphasize that grade inflation didn't happen at your school, I'd leave that one alone.

Edit: Just noticed the "in law" part. Are you filling out a transfer application?

Thanks.
Do you have a first degree in law?
