i'm screwed lol

i mean there's no application fee so if you have the $45 for the CAS fee then there's not much to lose so it's worth a try. even if you don't get in you'd have a head start on your application materials for the next year

sorry i dont mean to be like negative/dismissive like it's not a lost cause you just might get better results sending some apps in the fall

yeah, no worries, i'm just venting. the issue is whether i enroll immediately in a lesser school or wait a year to maybe get into a better school? it's just putting me on tilt

can i ask what your stats and career goals are? you can always throw some apps out now and evaluate once you get their decisions

i'm 40 yrs old so a late bloomer

also i had a MIP in undergrad, but I can't remember the specifics because it was so long ago, it was expunged, and nobody can locate the records when i call the station lol. like, how am i supposed to answer that on the character & fitness supplemental

supposed to get june lsat score next week so i suppose that will clear some things up

you can say like "i reached out to my school and they said they dont have my records" and then if the law school says they want comms from your undergrad you can ask whatever office is in charge of that to send like "we dont have any disciplinary records for walnut"

and late bloomer made me laugh lol

thank you friend. i was so focused on studying for the lsat that i didn't really look at the admissions process, now that i am it's quite overwhelming!

personal statement is gonna get pounded out this weekend it appears

something's getting pounded this weekend?

no worries at all! the LSAT matters a ton i think i dedicated like half my brain cells to it and they all died as soon as i finished my exam.

but yeah it sounds like you have a good plan to just throw some apps out there now and if you decide to apply for fall 25 you have plenty of time!

quick question for you

OH i guess something else that's relevant if you want to not wait until fall 25 to start, some schools have programs that allow you to start in the winter or spring as well but those are rare i can only think of cardozo off the top of my head

yeah go nuts

why does this show GPA on a scale of 4.3?

it was always 4.0 when i was in school?

also lmao leave it to bunny to show up as soon as someone talks about pouding

lol just saw that

bunny got something on the brain

oh its one of my least favorite things about the application process! the LSAC converts your undergrad transcript to their own scale, which goes up to a 4.3 to accommodate schools that do +/-

how do they convert? say i have a 3.25 / 4.0...do they have a formula? and is that normal for all schools now

idk how common it is, i know my undergrad didnt do +/- and i graduated a couple years ago, lemme see if i can find the LSAC's official explanation of their gpa scale. it basically includes any credit attempted even if it didnt factor into your school's calculation of your gpa, so if your school only takes the most recent grade from a retaken class, or doesn't assign value to a failed pass/fail class, etc

thank you, friend

if you have your complete unofficial transcript you cans search up some calculators online that would give you an estimate. also if you did anything for college credit in high school/like dual enrolled it would calculate that too even if your undergrad institution didn't give you a grade for it

also ahhhh its COB and i havent heard anything from georgetown and they said we'd hear back by this week lwhbrve2purbqpiubvrew
