You will probably need a 3.9 and a 176 on the LSAT.  However, there are many great law schools with much more lenient requirements, where you get just as good of an education.  Visit http://www.LSAC.org - they have tons of information compiled about what law school takes what GPA/LSAT, and US News also compiles those stats and ranks schools.

I was accepted to Harvard, but couldn't afford it!\n\nGPA 4.0\nACT 29\nI don't remember what my SAT score was (I took both ACT & SAT).

Without knowing your SAT scores, it's hard to say.  But keep in mind that if you are at a top prep school, the admissions officers will take that into consideration when looking at your GPA.  If you do very well on the SAT, if your letters of recommendation are great, and if your essay is literate and well-composed, you should do fine, and you might even be able to shoot higher than you think.\n\nA decent SAT score should give you an excellent shot at these very good colleges:\n\nCollege of William and Mary*\nUniversity of Richmond\nUniversity of Connecticut\nUniversity of Vermont\nUniversity of Virginia*\nBoston College\n\n* = aspirational schools - harder to gain admissions\n\nLower SAT?\n\nRoger Williams U\nClark University \nQuinnipiac U\nFairfield U\nUNH\n\nOh, and "pre-law" is not a major.  To get into law school later, choose a major that focuses on writing and critical thinking.   History is a great choice, but just choose something you love, and do very well in that major.  Law schools don't care what you major in, but they DO care whether you can read closely and critically, and write well.\n\nBest wishes to you!

You need to contact the University Bookstore. They will be happy to tell you. Harvard University will not respond to that question.

it's about a C/C+ GPA.\n\nA is 4.0\n\nB is 3.0\n\nC is 2.0\n\nD is 1.0\n\nunless you are taking Honors or Advanced Placement (weighted) classes - then you can add one point to each of the grades I gave you.

GPA of 1 =D\nGPA of 2 = C\nGPA of 3 = B\nGPA of 4 = A\n \nNote: for some undergraduate majors the GPA is weighted (scaled up) when being considered for Graduate School admission. This is to make a fair playing Field for those who majored in particularly challenging majors

Go to http://www.lawschoolnumbers.com you don't even have to sign up for an account.  Just click on View Schools.  Its only a segment of a whole, but going by this site I would definitely have to say Harvard.

His SAT score was 1206 (566 verbal, 640 math).\n\nHis cumulative undergraduate GPA at Yale was 2.35.\n\nGraduated from Yale University with a degree in history, and then earned an MBA from Harvard University.\n\nTraditionally, one has to have a 3.0 GPA to get a Master's degree.  I'm sure Harvard has that type of standard.

3.5 probably won't cut it, especially considering that most of the students who apply to Stanford have taken extremely tough classes and still have a 4.0. But the important thing is being a well-rounded student. Are you an officer in a lot of clubs? How are your SAT scores? You'll have to score around 2200 to make up for your low GPA. Definitely apply! It's better than always wondering if you might have made it. Good luck!

www.LSAC.org has great resources, including a searchable database where you can enter in your LSAT score and GPA and see the chances of where you can get in.\n\nThe other resource I used is the US News guide to law schools - they publish a book every year and rank the top 100 school and give full info about everyone.  You can find most of the same info on the LSAC site, but the US News ranks the schools and it's a little more handy to flip through a book to figure it out.  You can find it in the test prep section of any bookstore.\n\nI would suggest you call up your nearest Kaplan Test Prep and ask to take a free practice LSAT to get a vague idea of your score.  You can expect your score to go up a few points after that.  It's a good idea to actually take a course to study as well.  I took Kaplan and increased 9 points, and I went on to teach the class for a while as well.\n\nAlso keep in mind that TONS of people are applying to law school, and the competition gets stiffer every year.  So if a school states the 25th to 75th percentile of their LSAT score and GPA, you can bet that it's going to be higher for the year you apply.  So make sure you have some safety schools.  \n\nAnd if you're open to moving apply around the country.  I only applied to schools in CA, so the highest ranked school I got into was UC Davis.  But there are plenty oh higher ranked schools that I could have gotten into out of state. Keep an open mind and look for the best program based on location, rank, and the best fit for you academically.  I chose a lower ranked school (Loyola Law) closer to home because it has a great reputation in Los Angeles, and it was much less competitive then the UC schools, and is a more friendly, relaxed environment.

With a 2.36, it is questionable whether you could get into grad school.\n\nTake the GRE, including the subject test.  That will be a better indicator than your GPA.\n\nThen, talk to the professors in your department about where you could go, or call the IR Depts. of some universities.

I think they recurit, but i dont think they can recieve full scholarships, probably half ones. I had a friend who went to harvard she made a perfect 1600 and had like a 4.4 gpa and harvad said they dont give out scholarships for merit. Only need based scholarships are given out

As far as I know, they do. What matters most is not the fact that you do an honors program, but that you graduate with honors. A 3.3 GPA is c-u-m laude, 3.6 is magna c-u-m laude, and 3.9 is summa c-u-m laude. There used to be another one higher for it, but not even universities like harvard use it.

Boalt Hall School of Law ranks consistently in the Top 10 of US law schools. Typically, they don't take lower LSAT scores; however, Boalt prides themselves on using a holistic approach to admissions. The admissions committee looks at other factors besides LSAT. GPA is a major criterion. Moreover, COMMUNITY SERVICE figures highly. If you have a lot of internship experience, or have a lot of community advocacy volunteer gigs on your resume, you will look more appealing to the admissions committee. And yes, a little bit of a sob story or struggle can work in your favor. Your essay counts for a lot. They can smell a greasy, unscrupulous overachiever from a mile away. Be genuine.
