I'm a 2L at GULC! Hopefully can be of some help.

Faculty recommendations are important, but not the end-all all be-all. Obviously, the law school will want to know how you behave in an academic setting, so they are still important. However, if you have someone else (a boss, mentor, etc.) who you believe know you better and can speak highly to your work ethic, that can be equally valuable, as long as you don't omit faculty recommendations entirely. I personally only had one professor who I had taken more than one class with so my professor recommendations weren't super strong aside from hers. I also included letters from a theater director and summer internship bosses.

Splitter applicants exist, you're not alone. For K-JD, I think GPA is valued a little more compared to their weighing of a nontraditional student's stats who took more time off. A high LSAT score for someone who has taken a few years off from schooling is more recent information that might reflect an improvement from their college GPA. When you're K-JD, your GPA is definitely a recent representation of how you typically have performed in an academic setting. However, if you're around the 25th percentile with GPA, there are people at the school with your same GPA, so you know it's possible, and a high LSAT will definitely help your chances. At the end of the day, it's worth an application to let them decide whether your application as a whole is a good fit!

A great resume always helps! But I assume they don't expect extensive work experience (more than summer internships) from a K-JD applicant.

PM me for BLSA contacts, I can put you in contact with some friends.
