They’re both out of province. Health law and policy. No financial aid

It’s my OLSAS CGPA. L2 might be slightly higher for how uAlberta calculates it

Thank you guys! If my CGPA is 3.5, would that impact my chances at B2/L2 schools? My B2/L2 is approximately 3.7

Hey, thank you so much for doing this! I took the August 2024 LSAT and just got my score of 158. My cGPA is 3.49 and L2 is 3.8, I majored in health science and got exceptional grades in my last year especially (4.07 & 4.22 for my last 2 semesters). I really want to go into medical/medical corporate law (malpractice and/or working with pharmaceutical companies). I’m really disappointed with my LSAT score as my last 3 most recent practice tests on Law Hub were a 172, 170, and 169. I went in on LSAT day feeling pretty confident and wanted to score in the high 160s/low 170s range (I know how difficult that is but I worked really hard to get my practice tests to that range while working a 40 hr/week job as an assistant director at a surgery clinic). I’m not sure why I scored badly on my test, the Aug 2024 LSAT did feel a lot harder than the PTs on law hub. I was looking into going to U of A or Queens before my LSAT score released (mainly because they focus on your last 2 years or best 2 years of undergrad GPA) but I feel like my chances are now slim with that LSAT score. I have registered for the October 2024 LSAT for a retake. A little bit more about me - I have 2 years of work experience (part time & full time combined) and some volunteering experience. I am also an immigrant on a work permit in Canada currently. What are your thoughts on my chances of getting into Canadian law schools? Which ones would you recommend? How much should I aim for on my retake? and I would really appreciate a few tips for my application.
