<p>Will taking a year or semester abroad help or hinder a law school admit. I appreciate everyone's opinion but would like to hear from people with experience with this in particular.</p>
<p>I don't know - I'm studying abroad for a year myself. I think it would depend if you were just goofying off or doing something worthwhile. I can't see it really hurting anyway.</p>
<p>Do you mean as an undergrad, or as a gap year?</p>
<p>I'd like to know the impact on law school admission of a study abroad program during the undergraduate years. Would a co-op or internship abroad be viewed any differently than taking classes?</p>
<p>They can't really tell you studied abroad because grades from classes taken abroad are automatically transferred to your undergrad school's transcript. At least that's how it works for most schools.</p>
