Would an internship through CHCI help my application as well?

@madollyy: It would help as a soft but the big focus should be GPA while you can and LSAT right now. I would say GPA is 40% of the app, LSAt 50% and everything else 10%.

I agree with dk ^

Got it, thank you. I don't think there is much I can do for my GPA now since I only have 1 semester left for ug but I definitely will be studying my butt off for the LSAT.

Nice!

@madollyy: is that your CAS GPA?
madollyy
20:33
That's what's on my transcript! I haven't done that one yet tbh. I get mostly A's, some B's. Got dragged down a bit too much from one D in my first semester though ><
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:34
do you have any A+’s? that could help your gpa!
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:36
bc LSAC recalculates A+ to 4.3
madollyy
20:39
Noo :( Unfortunately. I'm surprised that I don't, there were definitely some classes that I remember scoring 98-100% but it doesn't show on my transcript

Acutally

My university does not list A+
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:42
yeah my university’s the same way, so frustrating! still a great GPA and with a killer LSAT score you’ll be good to go :)
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:42
if you have the means, I’ve heard private tutoring is the way to go
madollyy
20:44
Fingers crossed! I mean I'd be so so glad to go to law school period, but I am a bit of an overachiever. Dream is Berkeley rn, but I'm of course happy to go anywhere that lines up with my plans. And is kind enough with scholarships lol
madollyy
20:44
I'll have to see if my parents are willing to support that. I'm living on my own but ik if it'd help me they'd be willing to help

who knows, you might not even need a tutor! Take a diagnostic and see where you stand :)

@madollyy: yeah that happend to me too with my community college transcript. You can try calling to see if they can alter your transcript but like mine would not do it.

@JumpySubsequentDolphin: I would push back on this. I think for the vast majority of people LSAT tutoring is unnecessary.

@madollyy: I focus on bringing your GPA up as much as possible in the last semester because once you graduate you cannot change that. So don't study for the LSAT next semester if you think that would impair your ability to get straight A's. As for LSAT studying, I would recommend LSAT Demon (ik controversial), the Loophole, and Reading Comp Hero.
