<p>So, first off, I'm currently a sophomore at Boston University. For my first semester, I took Chinese, along with a pretty difficult courseload, and ended up with a 2.78. That was a mistake. Second semester, I took it up a notch and earned a 3.75. The two average to a 3.26. </p>
<p>I probably need to transfer soon to University of Tennesee: Knoxville for financial reasons (the tuition at BU is absurd), but I'm pretty confident in my ability to do well at UT, and possibly earn a 4.0.</p>
<p>My question is, do law schools and the LSAC average the two (or more) GPAs for students who transferred during ugrad, or do they only look the school you graduate from? </p>
<p>If I were to work my butt off through grade deflation at BU for the next 3 years and earn consecutive 4.0s every semester, by the end of junior year I would end up with a 3.75. OR, if I were to transfer, I could see myself easily getting 3.75s or better. Assuming finances aren't a problem, which would you recommend, and which would law schools look more favorably upon? </p>
<p>thanks</p>
