<p>Hi all,
It has been a while since I last visited but it sure is good to be back. So, last year I was deciding on which college to attend and now I am looking at law schools and other graduate/professional programmes domestically and abroad. I know it is quite early to search but still...I am going to be a sophmore in the fall at the University of Connecticut, majoring in political science and philosophy with a current GPA of 3.5.
First, is the US equivalence of 2:1 Honour a 3.5 or higher? Is the GRE/LSAT required for graduated/law schools abroad like Oxbridge, LSE or Sciences Po in France?
I have read a few posts on here about US students attending grad school in France/England and it seems that many people here firmly believe that it is easier to get admitted oversea then it is here. Of course, the word "easier" leaves a lot of room for interpretation.
Is a degree from the previous institutions as valuable as one from domestic institutions?
LSE sent me a coursebook and I saw that they offer many joint/dual degree programmes. Does this mean with the completion of the required courses from both institutions that I can receive two diplomas?</p>
<p>lol...too many questions but as always, your honest opinions are appreciated</p>
<p>Thank you all.</p>
