does having a MA increase your chances in admissions?
[] WhisperingWillingBoar

Popcornlover81 - Almost not at all, but no one can really say for sure.
22:12
along the same vein, I understand admissions are hyperfocused on LSAT scores, but about gpa - would it make a diff that my GPA was higher in grad school (MA) vs. my undergrad GPA?
[] trox99
22:22
No not really
[] trox99
22:23
Undergrad GPA is what gets reported for their stats
22:24
Ok, that makes sense
Hey, so my CAS transcript evaluation shows my GPA as Superior (because Im a foreign applicant). Does anybody know what superior means in GPA terms? Like a 3.9 or 4?
[] trox99

I’m not sure if you can really put a number on an international GPA
[] trox99
1:13
I think it basically means you are effectively a median GPA candidate since you don’t hurt their stats.
[] trox99
1:15
In other words, there becomes a ton of emphasis on the LSAT, so you better be above median
But i have heard that the CAS evaluation for international transcripts is categorised into 3: Superior, above average and below average.
So, considering it is superior it would be some kind of a boost right. Cus atm I'm a super splitter.

@trox99 doesn’t know anything more then the rest of us. Contact the admissions office and ask lol
@EmptyGoat: I have been wanting to get into dnd for years at this point
[] trox99

Just from the research I’ve done and things I’ve read… of course I could be wrong🤷🏼‍♂️
[] trox99
9:29
Superior is obviously the best but I still think that the LSAT is far more important and is going to be what ultimately gets you either accepted or denied
