Law School Myths Debunked: I need a Perfect GPA

As discussed in our previous blog, Its so expensive, Ill never afford it!, welcome back to our 10-part blog series where we debunk the most popular myths about applying to Law School. In this blog we cover myth #3, I need a perfect GPA. At Canada Law From Abroad, we partner with 12 British universitiesto accommodate nearly any GPA. Of course, having a good GPA is always helpful in getting you into the most schools as possible. But fear not, it definitely isnt required. UK law school admissions review candidates in their entirety meaning your GPA is just one aspect of your application. University representatives individually read personal statements, evaluate work history and experience and take a more holistic look of students beyond GPA.
