[quote=Anonymous]If you really want to be a lawyer, then I agree with others to find an interesting job and work for a few years so your GPA is less important to your application. I had a high GPA but a more mediocre LSAT and still got into a top five law school. But I worked for five years before I applied and had an interesting resume by the time I went. If you like the thrill of the campaign, maybe try to find a job on the Hill. You can also volunteer on the side (tutoring, etc.) to diversify your resume even more. Or look at an industry like IT where nobody cares at all about your undergrad grades. My brother was a total mess in college, but he liked computers and is now making a ton of money doing cybersecurity without ever going to grad school.[/quote]
