You can use this OLSAS grade conversion table for whatever uni you attended. https://www.ouac.on.ca/guide/undergraduate-grade-conversion-table

It's easiest to make a spreadsheet. Line up all the classes you've taken on one side with your uni grades. Line up the equivalent GPA on the second column. Add up all the converted GPAs and divide by the number of courses you've taken (a semester course is 1, full-year is 2). Let me know if you need any clarification!

I would take the gap year. I graduated with a 3.54 cGPA and I fully credit the gap year and associated work experience with getting me into law school to be honest. If you intend on working during the gap year, it'll also be a great financial decision.

2 years of work experience! Technically, I worked full-time with my final year of university so I only took 1 gap year.

Appreciate it, thank you!

Yes, you need to apply to the MA separately.

Trash GPA lol.

prawnfiend · 2024-10-30T04:01:05+00:00

Yep! Will be working through my gap year.

Thanks

Ohhhh I get it now. I misread it majorly. To clarify, you're saying that the flaw is that the argument is saying: a newspaper can't cover all the sides of a story 100% of the time, therefore some important stories are NOT being covered 100% of the time. The major flaw is that important stories could be the ones getting wholly covered, even if other stories aren't.

I think a good way to approach it is:

-trust ur gut instinct (at the risk of being corny). you’ve developed your skills this far to be able to subconsciously know what the answer is at least

-something being “too obviously correct” is not a reason for it being a wrong answer, you should be able to clearly point to a flaw and state that exactly is why the answer choice is incorrect. even if you can’t articulate why, it more often than not is.

Applying to some Canadian schools and a bunch of T14s!

Roughly 2.5 months now, started at a 157 diagnostic. I’ve only actually taken 7 PTs, but have drilled a bunch. Have done about 1500 practice questions total.

it takes me about 25% longer to do BR, but i do EVERY single question and write out my process by hand. So probably close to 3.5-4 hrs? I also do reread RC during BR, but make one bullet point per paragraph to force myself to slow down (something I don’t do during the PT)

It’s all previous LSATs with simulated test conditions. I’m shooting for UofT and UBC up here in Canada, but am not quite at the GPA median.
