High school suspension...how big of a deal is it?

Graduate School Law School

<p>I'm in undergard right now, and nervous about how a past mistake will effect my chances of getting into a good law school. I was suspended in high school for skipping: will this hurt my chances of getting into a T14 school? Do admissions committees even care about mistakes made that far in the past, or is college life their only concern? </p>

<p>Since it didn't involve dishonesty and I certainly wasn't breaking the law, is it necessary to include an addendum, and is it even worth mentioning? Of course I want to err on the side of caution, but I don't want to mention anything self-deprecating if I don't have to.</p>

<p>Thanks guys</p>

<p>I really doubt anyone will care as long as you didn’t break any laws. I wouldn’t even mention it.</p>

<p>You’re ****ed</p>

<p>You are not serious, aren`t you ?Why on Earth would you mention anything that happened in your high school years ?</p>

<p>so I have no reason to worry about it, then?
what a relief :3</p>

<p>I am speechless</p>

<p>To be fair I thought the intro language question was stupider.</p>

<p>No one cares. Might pop up in character & fitness for the bar, but I doubt it’ll be an issue.</p>

<p>Hi I am new here and I was wondering how much would a
suspension for a verbal ( not physical ) confrontation hurt
me. I am not trying to attend any Ivy leagues and I might
nott even be able to get into a research university. The main
thing I wanted to know was if I would not be qualified for
the HOPE scholarship.</p>
