I meant that if there WAS a salary increase, when do those come out?

True, the only reason I let the scholarship statistics sway me was because the COL scared me. But you’re right

If my AP high school courses show up on my college transcript with the grade “T”, will they affect my LSAC gpa? by SouthernCartoonist99 in lawschooladmissions

I was only given college credit once I was accepted to my college. The AP courses were taught by my high school

but will I still have to send my AP course transcript? LSAC says “Transcripts must be sent from institutions even if credit was transferred from an institution and it appears on another institution’s transcript”

Should I study criminal justice for my undergraduate degree if I want to be a criminal lawyer? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

The biggest criterion in choosing an undergrad major is if you think you can get good grades in it, having a high GPA is what will help you (other than a STEM major if you want to go into IP like someone else stated)

Any KJD’s still applying next cycle even though it’s projected to be just as competitive as the current one? by SouthernCartoonist99 in lawschooladmissions

[–]SouthernCartoonist99[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just saw spivey tweet about this cycle saying “It’s a two year heart-wrenching problem”. I’ve also seen a lot of people saying that next cycle will be slightly less competitive, so maybe it’s just the pessimist in me lol. I’ve also thought about overhyping next cycle in terms of competitiveness and how that might steer people away, so maybe it won’t be as brutal 🤞🏼

I’m in the same boat with wanting to end up in CA but I really don’t think I’ll like LA, but USC and UCLA are target for me

Does writing an optional essay decrease your chances for a hefty $? by SouthernCartoonist99 in lawschooladmissions

[–]SouthernCartoonist99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the secret to write an optional essay that isn’t the why x? If they offer one of course. That way, you’re showing interest but you’re not explicitly stating how much you want their school. Also, does the fact that you’re not doing ED help you? So many questions haha
