[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure the snarky responders here understand how much law schools care about GPA. My understanding (I'm not an expert but my kid is aiming for law school so I've been paying attention) is that law schools don't care that much about pedigree of UG school but care a ton about GPA. Obviously, law schools will also love to admit Harvard students so it may be that a low GPA at Harvard will be viewed differently than a low GPA at Penn or somewhere else. It's hard to say, really. Everyone paying attention knows it's easier to get a high GPA at Brown than at Future-Harvard. I don't think it will matter for other professions (consulting and Wall Street just kind of want about a 3.5 and then don't compare-- at least that's my understanding). But for Law School... I'd honestly think twice. [/quote]
