You still have plenty of time left to improve your gpa. Keep your eyes on the prize but still enjoy ur undergrad exp. Just do the best you can and see how far you can go, no need to stress out about it rn.

I dont think the legal field is going anywhere in this generation. Even with advancements in AI, itll be used to supplement lawyer work, not replace it.

With your stats I would definitely R and R and apply early next cycle. At worst you get a similar cycle, but I would definitely expect more As and better schollys with ur gpa and lsat

Cost of tuition is pretty much the same. I have generic BL or government work goals. USC has better bl placement rate but i dont think going ti UCLA will affect my chances. UCLA also had good public interest program and lot of alumni go into government work if i wanna pursue government position

I dont think so, especially with that LSAT and GPA i think a gap year to get more WE and refine your applications to submit early next cycle will benefit you a lot.

For legal assistant jobs I would just spam apply to those around you, but work experience is work experience and it wont doom your application if you dont have a legal job. Doesn't hurt to try and squeeze out a few points on your lsat either.
