[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is a junior in college and wants to apply to law school (he’ll probably work for a couple of years to save money and gain maturity and professional skills).

He had a rough first year of college grade-wise (he wasn’t going crazy partying or the like, but he had a hard adjustment to managing his time effectively and the analytic skill expectations of college profs - I difress but he’s got adhd and isn’t medicated, he managed fine that way in HS but it’s proven harder for him in college), but he learned from his mistakes and has done well since and I’m very proud of him. But he’ll never be able to make up the hit to his gpa from that first year. Is a good law school a viable option for a kid whose overall gpa will likely be 3.6ish, but excluding first year would be more like a 3.8? Obviously he doesn’t know how he’ll do on the LSAT, but he scored a 36 on the ACT so hopefully he’ll do well on it. I feel badly for him that law school may not he in the cards mainly because of a rough adjustment to college, but I’ve told him that may be the case so he is prepared. [/quote]

Do well then transfer second year.  [/quote]

pp said her kid is now a junior (also with bad freshman year grades, how would they transfer soph year?)[/quote]

Lol, do well in the first year of law school then transfer to the preferred law school.
