174, 3.85

Post by redhead90 » Sun Jan 04, 2015 4:45 am

174, 3.85 econ/poli sci from top 5 undergrad, 3 years work experience working at legal non-profit and teaching English abroad and lots of non-profit internships in college. Also wrote about growing up with gay moms in PS, not sure if that counts for diversity at all. Know numbers are good so hope this doesn't come off as douchy/show offy, but GPA got knocked down a few pegs bc LSAC counted study abroad grades that UG counted pass/fail and don't know many law peeps so thought it would be good to get some input. Just submitted few days ago to YHS, NYU, and Berkeley bracing for long wait!

I did a semester abroad through a different school that gave letter grades but my UG just counted them pass/fail. LSAC made me send in a separate transcript from other school.
