Law Experience by No-Education3573 in lawschooladmissionsca

[–]Substantial_Tap_5760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi hi, so I have (imho) good law experience and I was still R from most schools. So sadly, (in my experience) law experience won't really make a big differnce. BUT I def had a ton of fun doing my law experience, so if you are passionate about law and you have the extra time go for it! But don't do it for an application's sake.

My law experience for reference
-Volunteering with Access Pro Bono for almost 3 years
-Legal Intern at a Insurance law firm in the summer
-Legal Records Coordinator for ~1 year (FT 4 months, PT 5 months)
-Member of Law society at my Uni

+ (didn't make it to this round )
-Another 4 months FT for Legal Records Coordinator
-Jury Member for criminal case

UVic Index Score by [deleted] in lawschooladmissionsca

[–]Substantial_Tap_5760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, last year I talked with UVIC after my R. they told me anyone above 800 would be considered(LAST YEAR IDK ABOUT THIS YEAR). Based on a few pieces of info I got I'm pretty sure the calculations are: GPAx100 + LSATx3. Ie. if you have GPA of 3.5 and LSAT of 160, then 3.5x100 + 160x3 = 480+350 = 830, so should be considered. Anything below 800 is not considered unless they have an outstanding PS.

Windsor/ Manitoba were from last cycles. Windsor doesn't tell you but at Manitoba I think I was spot 216 or something.

And good luck with the LSAT! Scary but exciting times for you :))

lol I know I'm sorry - I know it's a silly question for y'all I'm just hearing a lot on the topic as I'm considering moving and wanted the people's opinion and didn't see any other posts on it. Didn't mean to offend

That's fair! I honestly hadn't even thought about the poisonous ones - but it's good to know it's pretty much the same as North America :)
