Mobilia

Mobilia are things that can be moved. This term comes from Roman law and can refer to objects like furniture, books, or tools. It can also refer to living things like animals or slaves.

Hi everyone! Decided a bit too late that I wanted to go into law. GPA currently stands at 3.76 (one more semester to go) and I'm interested in going into immigration law. Anybody got any advice for LSAT studying and applications? I plan on taking a gap year to have some time for internships and such :)

Apply for the LSAT fee waiver to try to mitigate the cost of materials! 7Sage is $1 for a year if you have the fee waiver. I also think you should try to work in an immigration firm in some way to see if it’s something you really want to pursue and to add to your resume. Good luck!!! One tip I would also give is to not sign up for the LSAT until you’re practice tests average are around the score you’re aiming for

Would an internship through CHCI help my application as well?
Dkk
20:29
@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
madollyy
20:41
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

20:47
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.
