<p>I'm skeptical. I'm going to be a second year at UC Berkeley, and right now my LSAC GPA is a 4.09. Granted, the classes I've received A+s in were extremely easy, including an introductory Astronomy course, an introductory Anthropology course, and a Statistics course for business majors. I've heard rumors on this board and through the grapevine in general that your GPA is considered for the most part in isolation from the school you attended, your major, and your course selection. I have trouble believing this, so I'd really like some insight here.</p>
<p>At Harvard admissions, the representative said they look at course selection to some extent. A mix of higher level courses in a few areas is better than mostly intro courses in many departments. He also said overall LSAT and GPA are by far the most important.</p>
<p>Top law schools consider everything that you present in your application, including the school you attended, your major and your coursework. The extent to which these factors hae an impact can vary widely depending upon the law school, your GPA and LSAT score and other factors that can vary from year to year as law schools try to create a diverse student body.</p>
