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.
Applying with not so great grades...

It's been said many times before on this board but grades mean nothing without knowing your class rank. If you rank well apply now, if you dont try to improve your rank before applying.
