Dropped out of college

[->Soon]

If your one of the older students that dropped out of school when you were in your teens, are you putting that on your app?

even it was a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnng time ago?

Absolutely... and how you went from that to a college graduate looking to got o law school sounds like the basis of a good personal statement. "Why you want to go to law school" carries a different amount of weight for us non-trads than it does for 'traditional' law school students. We've seen the world, been in it, and something has guided us to the decision that law school is where we belong. Use it...(just have the test scores and grades to back it up).

I just spoke to someone at Miami, and she said they normally only look about 5 years back, so if it was super long ago, it shouldn't be that big of a deal

I got KICKED out of two colleges, I mentioned it in my grades addendum cuase I had like 5 F's to expalin, it was 15+ years ago and I had 100 dredits of 3.5 or better since I went back a few years ago, so I don't think it hurt me, but it KILLED my LSAC GPA, degree GPA was 3.92, LSAC was 2.9!

thats about what im expecting...

I think its about time someone sued them...

LSAC lists 2 gpa's, right?

whats the difference?

[->Soon]

when schools list their gpa range, is that the cumulative or just the degree gpa?
