What's the worst that could happen with fall transcript?
But seriously. My cumulative is 3.5, Spring '10 was 3.9 and fall '10 was 3.1. What's the worst that could happen? I mean losing scholarships? Losing acceptances? Getting dinged at every single place I haven't heard back from yet?

Re: What's the worst that could happen with fall transcript?
A school requests fall grades, you send them, they decide not to accept you. That's about it. 3.1 is not such a large drop off from 3.5 to warrant losing scholarships or acceptances. I wouldn't send my fall grades to LSAC though.lisjjen wrote:But seriously. My cumulative is 3.5, Spring '10 was 3.9 and fall '10 was 3.1. What's the worst that could happen?

Is that an option? I've been put on hold to a lot of places, and the emails they sent me intoned that they're waiting for my grades.Knock wrote:A school requests fall grades, you send them, they decide not to accept you.

I can, but only UC Davis directly asked for them.Knock wrote: Can you send it directly to the school?

Re: What's the worst that could happen with fall transcript?
why wouldn't you send it through the LSAC? I got an email from UCdavis for fall transcripts, too, and they said I should send them to the LSAC and LSAC would forward them to UCdavis...Knock wrote:A school requests fall grades, you send them, they decide not to accept you.

Because his fall grades went down. Although you may have no choice if you still want to be considered by UCDavis.girlonfire wrote:why wouldn't you send it through the LSAC?

Re: What's the worst that could happen with fall transcript?
Penn asked for mine and I sent it to them directly and then they also said they'd need LSAC confirmation. Pretty much no choice in that case. I'm almost certain that's the case more often than not at all schools so what you're saying to do doesn't really apply.Knock wrote:Because his fall grades went down.

Hey, I just recently learned that discreet and discrete are discrete words. I find language to be fascinating though. I'm writing a law review note in which I attempt to define "law."lisjjen wrote:Are you intimating that I ought to familiarize myself more intimately with Dictionary.com?
ETA: I just realized that intimate ("intimating") and intimate ("intimately") are also discrete words, homographs even.

Re: What's the worst that could happen with fall transcript?
So do I, it's part of the reason I'm going into law. Language is a beautiful and intricate thing. I just used dictionary.com to look up discrete and urbandictionary.com to look up ETA. Hopefully you can give me some pointers to getting on the law review in September.JazzOne wrote:Hey, I just recently learned that discreet and discrete are discrete words.
