hey there,
i can understand why you’ve been getting mixed answers – i feel like this is one of those things.
unfortunately, i can’t say for sure how different law schools would view full-time summer school. the best rule of thumb is always to reach out to the admissions offices of the law schools you’re interested in and ask them directly, since different schools have different policies.
if you want to talk to an advisor about this… do you have an equivalent of the registrar’s office at u ottawa?
maybe someone on this page might be able to help you? i don’t know much about your school, but there there have got to be academic advisors there for you. some may even have worked at law school offices or admissions offices, which makes them way more qualified to answer this than i am. if you have no luck finding an academic advisor at your school by googling it, try asking around or posting on reddit.
good luck with your law school dreams! hope your winter semester is going well.
