…would enable me to accomplish my goals. After considering retaking the LSAT, I ultimately decided against it because I did not believe I’d be able to successfully study for the exam during the school year and had concerns about delaying my applications until later in the cycle by waiting for my score/wanting to do…

Admitted to Indiana University - Bloomington…deferral offer, I asked the admissions office if I could retake the LSAT for a higher score during my deferral year, and they said I could as long as it was the october 2025 LSAT or earlier. I ended up retaking it in september and got a 172. this score was taken into account when calculating my aid, and I was…
…however I can. robdymes123@hotmail.com Semper Fi. Dec 5th: Retake the LSAT if you can! This cycle has been brutal for me with waitlist hell. I’m fairly confident that if I had a better LSAT I would have gotten more acceptances. My issue came down to timing, work, and retirement planning. Take more time with LSAT…
Stats are 90% of what matters. At non t14s, they’re 100% of what matters. My LSAC GPA was significantly worse than my transcript GPA because I had to retake a class that I sorta quit on my freshman year (oops). This absolutely hurt my cycle, maybe more for scholarship amounts than for acceptances. Essays and resume…
was PTing at 169-174, but got an absolute monster of a games section on my second official, and thus I got a 166. Pretty unhappy with that score. May retake in April if no solid acceptances by then. UPDATE - 11/30/2023 - going to apply to a couple schools but likely a retake in February and then rinse and repeat for…
don’t let reddit convince you you have to retake a 165 lsat
…I wasn’t confident in my ability to do much better on a retake, though in hindsight even a point or two higher might’ve made the difference at NDLS given the 170+ median they seem to be targeting this year. It’s unfortunate how focused schools are on medians, but you have to play the game if you want to win. I ended…
…documents. Apply as early as possible. Don’t be afraid to retake the LSAT; your score might just surprise you and save you a couple of thousand dollars (or maybe tens or hundreds). However long and expensive of a process you think this is, double the cost of applications and the time needed to complete them. Contact…
retake the LSAT
…be for you and others will not be. Do not be afraid of retaking and getting the test that was written for you. Michigan was my first acceptance and I was content to go there, especially with the scholarship. The only thing that could have changed my mind was Harvard, as I knew I’d get aid, or a better offer from…
Retake and reapply is worth the time, trouble, and money.
Deferred from WashU to get some additional work experience and hopefully raise my scholarship through an LSAT retake.
