Another example is a summer associate. This is a law student who works for a law firm during their summer break. They are like a legal intern. Many law firms hire summer associates and offer them a job after they graduate.

Hey just wondering how to filter data by international Gpa? Can't seem to find this filter option

There’s no intuitive way to do this. The only way I can find is by going to each individual school, scrolling to the part that shows you all applicants for that year, and clicking on the GPA button until it filters them for the blank ones first. I’ve found by clicking on profiles that the ones with an LSAT listed and no GPA are almost universally international
