I feel like I’m safe for now; I need to raise my GPA anyways, regardless of law school. I don’t need to worry about the LSATs just yet.

If I have a 3.6-3.7 GPA, do I have a chance of getting into a good school? Also, from where I currently stand, exactly how hard will that be? I have 3.5 years left, taking ~18-20 credits per semester. Organic chem and microbio I are challenging me very heavily at the moment. I’m not expecting college to be a walk in the park, but I want to be prepared before I start slamming my head against a wall.

I have 2-3 law offices in mind in my state that I plan on contacting next month regarding some sort of work opportunity. How do I explain my situation to them and ask for work without seeming like I’m begging for a job?
