Currently I have an 15.30 average, that means Im positioned within the score of 3.7 on the GPA scale.

Additionally, I am a founder member of a legal journal known within the legal field in my country named Athina ( http://www.revistaathina.org ).
I am currently studying at a private University Universidad de Lima (http://www.ulima.edu.pe) , considered the # 1 university within the law schools in Peru. Moreover, I made two student exchanges; one to Spain at the University of Salamanca (http://www.usal.edu.es) and a Summer Camp in Salt Lake City, Utah. I am currently working as a trainee at a law firm widely recognized named Rodrigo, Elias & Medrano (http://www.estudiorodrigo.com), Ranked # 3 among the best Law firms of Latin America, in the area of litigation, which includes the following areas: civil, criminal and constitutional. Also, Im a member of the students association from my university, as well as a great athlete.

The actual question is: With all the activities and the academic grade that I have, should I be a good leaflet to make my LL.M in a top 10 USA University?
