I actually believe that my prior academic performance was well below Georgetown's average. I had a 3.0/4.33 from a tier 2 JD school. I was, however, very fortunate to have some extremely unique experiences in investor-state international arbitration, international commercial transactions, and some work abroad. I think a critical part of my application was receiving recommendation letters from some of the most reputable practitioners of international law.
