Preferably in the south or the northeast area. Obviously it is understandable that chances for T20-25 are slim, but any suggestions would be great.

Thanks!

+1. Well she's already retaken. Here's hoping for a 160+.
If you don't get a 160+, sit out the cycle. You have a very strong application, don't ruin it with a low LSAT.
