Alright. So, since all UC transferable credits transfer then the GPA you end up with once you transfer is what law schools will be looking at, right? What if you take some CC credits AFTER you transfer? Will those credits be considered?

ALL COLLEGE CREDITS (and grades) taken before you receive your undergraduate degree will be factored in.</p>

So how do law schools calculate your overall GPA (from both community college and the UC you've attended)? Take the average of both GPAs?

No, they have a system that takes your transcripts and creates an LSDAS gpa from them. For instance, they give any A+ a 4.33 point designation--so your UC gpa could be lower than the gpa they calculate since UC gives a 4.0 to A+. Once all your units and grades are factored into their system it creates a cumulative gpa. (Another note: they consider a "NC" to be an "F"; those units are factored in.) Keep in mind that admissions people will look at transcripts as well, but as far as the cumulative gpa that is calculated and the yearly gpa, it's based on the LSDAS formula irrespective of the actual gpa the schools say you received.</p>
