Suspension and plagarism...

<p>I was suspended from my university for a year for plagiarizing in two classes. I learned my lesson and came back to the university and studied very hard. End result 3.7 G.P.A (not including all the A's I got in community college) and 172 LSAT, UCDC internship, Study Abroad internship, president of a club and Good recs.</p>

<p>What are my chances to get into the top 20 Law?</p>

<p>I do not think anyone can really assess this for you. Schools take plagarism and violation of the honor code very seriously.</p>

<p>You will have to disclose the suspension and the reason for the suspension. I think that there is a big difference in making this kind of error in judgement as a freshman and this kind of error as a junior. I think if the infraction was pretty recent, it may hurt you more.</p>

<p>Some schools may wonder how many of your other grades are based on your work or if you cheated in the past and simply were not caught.</p>
