Wed Aug 15, 2007 02:31 AM Hello everyone, I am thinking of doing my masters in law somewhere in the US like Harvard, Cornell, Penn... thing is, my 1st and 2nd year grades weren't too good. In 1st year i obtained three 2:1s and three 2:2s, and in 2nd year i obtained two 1sts, two 2:2s and 2 passes... my question is, should i apply for my masters this september with not so good grades, or apply next september when i have my 3rd year grades (which hopefully will be much better cuz i'll actually study)? any help would be greatly appreciated. cheers.
