Decent shots at Ottawa, Western, and Queens. Likely in Oz, provided you've written a nice PS. Your GPA is not competitive enough for UofT, but your LSAT is. So really hard to tell. I've no idea about Lakehead, Ryerson and Windsor. Good luck.

Thanks so much for your help! Just a follow up, you think first round call up a possibility?

That will depend on how competitive this cycle is. In case you need to check previous cycles' data points, they are in each law school's section on this forum. Take a look at them so you can get a sense when applicants with your stats got accepted.

The Cgpa is around the 3.35 mark although I went to UBC so I can’t really tell from OLSAS’ gpa calculations and how it pits against others schools.

What is your cgpa? normally that plays a big factor as well, even for queens or western

Also wanted to know, can a low gpa be offset by a higher LSAT?

UBC is listed as #7 on the OLSAS gpa table: https://www.ouac.on.ca/guide/olsas-conversion-table/. You should've also received a final cgpa calculation from OLSAS.

Your LSAT is pretty good so you have a very decent shot @ B2/L2 schools. Osgoode is always a toss up as your GPA is far below the median, but LSAT is far above. https://www.osgoode.yorku.ca/programs/juris-doctor/jd-admissions/first-year-applicants/eligibility-requirements/

Thank you so much! That’s really helpful information! Hoping for the best! I do have 3 years of work exp., lots of ECs too so hoping that should help mitigate the lower GPA!
