Special Masters for Law School?

Hey Guys,

There are so many special masters degrees available out there for medical school applicants to improve their applications after undergrad. I read on another site, that there are programs at certain law schools that are similar. However I can not find any. Does anyone have any info on this? Thanks

If there are any, they are a scam. Your LSDAS (Law school data assembly service) GPA is "frozen" when you get your first undergraduate degree. There's not a darn thing you can do about that.

Getting a master's degree is a "soft" factor in admissions and doesn't help much at all. It makes NO sense to get one expressly to improve your odds of getting into a better law school.
