<p>Undergrad Junior. Sophmore year I was too lackadaisical with studying, partying too much and flunked ACG2021 (Financial Accounting). Didn't get into college of business. At this time I had a 3.3 GPA. So I switched to Economics and it was so not for me. I got 2 F's, bringing my gpa to a 2.84. I wish I could go back to college of business. Wanted to do something along the lines of business administration or Management Information Systems where I can actually learn a skill. Since I Didn't get in, I chose to do sports management major. As much as I love sports, I have been very depressed since not getting in. I want to stick it out with sports management (reboost my GPA up) and then go to law school or get my MBA. But how can I get into a good law school or good MBA program? I feel so lost and regretful and wish I can go back in time and change it. But I cant, so how do I move forward towards my goal of grad school/law school?</p>
<p>A good MBA program will care more about the quality of work experience after your undergrad; there are a few MBA programs that will take you without work experience, but you’d be greatly limiting your options and your relevant coursework grades could hurt your chances. Your GPA will matter less if you show a progressive career over the course of a few years following graduation. Having good internships and networking will be important in landing a good job, then work your way up the ladder.</p>
<p>As for law school, the LSAT will be your focus. </p>
<p>I agree that your best option is to work hard these last 2 years, get some good internship experience, network with professionals in the field you want to work in, and/or study for the LSAT (since you’re looking at 2 different directions; the GMAT or GRE is required for business school, so you’ll have to narrow down what you want to do soon so you’re planning appropriately). </p>
<p>Or you could attempt to transfer to another college/business school, but it’d set you back due to your grades and some courses not transferring. So consider the financial cost (although it would still be cheaper than law school or an MBA program).</p>
