countingnotes Wrote:I'm working towards a B.S. in Business with an economics concentration and want to go to Columbia Law for a specific program they offer. Does anyone have any experience with applying to grad school when CLEP and/or DSST credits were part of your undergrad degree....if so, did the school convert your test scores into letter grades, did you have any trouble applying or getting accepted, etc. I'm nervous about how this may affect my chances of getting into law school, and some of the scores from my CLEP tests were in the low 50's. =/
Anyway, thank you so much for your replies - they really mean a lot to me. I plan on contacting Columbia, as well, to see what they have to say about CLEP and DSST credits.
what is your overall gpa from all your coursework (including dsst conversions)? that is what will matter in the end along with the lsat. schools will not individually scrutinize the courses
