Date: March 9th, 2010 2:03 PM Author: Laughsome sooty stage private investor I plan on taking LSATs in December 2010 and, hopefully, applying in January 2011 for Fall 2011 admission. At the time of application, though, I will still have 48 credits remaining to earn my BA.
I will be earning these credits as follows: Winter 2010 (January) Semester - (6 credits) Spring 2011 (January - May) Semester - (24 credits) Summer 2011 (June - July) Semester - (18 credits)
Would I be at a disadvantage in applying to LS since I'd have so many credits-to-be-earned remaining?
FWIW, my GPA should be super high (3.9+) at the time of application and I'd be able to obtain a letter from an academic adviser detailing that I will, indeed, be able to enroll in all of those classes and am on track to graduation.

Date: March 9th, 2010 2:56 PM Author: Laughsome sooty stage private investor You doubt LS give a shit or that anyone on the board gives a shit? If the former, you don't think they'd care that, at the time of application, I still have 48 credits to earn? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1245713&forum_id=2#14342385) |

Date: March 9th, 2010 3:04 PM Author: comical up-to-no-good tanning salon most people apply while they still have 30 remaining credits i.e. before they've completed the fall semester of their senior year. i don't see why you'd even need to send an addendum so long as you checked off the box that says you have or will have your bachelor's by the time classes start in fall.

Date: March 10th, 2010 10:28 AM Author: Laughsome sooty stage private investor i have personal reasons for wanting to be done with LS asap
i suppose 1 year doesn't make a huge difference in the grand scheme of things, especially at my age, but nevertheless - i don't want to waste more time |

Date: March 10th, 2010 10:48 AM Author: diverse laser beams Why are you so far behind? HYS may be reluctant to admit someone who hasn't shown he's capable of getting As in the harder classes in his major. If you've only aced things like composition and college algebra, you'll probably be somewhat less attractive. Also, I've heard that H doesn't like admitting people who are very young, for whatever reason - I may have read this on the admissions blog when I was applying. All schools claim to prefer people with some valuable post-graduate experience, but this may just be bullshit.
So if you changed majors late during UG, have a lot of As on your transcript in advanced courses, and are adding all these other courses in your senior year because you want a degree in Economics instead of English, or something, you're probably fine. Otherwise, this might be a problem, especially if you're very young and haven't done anything interesting. |
