Should i ask for USC to begin reviewing my APP now or later? Forum

[JD=Doctor]

i have a 166/3.71

and i am signed up for the december test (which made me incomplete in my app status) I contacted USC they said that they could begin reviewing and but it would be flagged not to consider my december score (i forgot exactly what they said but they said something abut being redflagged) and that i have to decide if im ok with that


should i apply and try to use december score for $$? How much is it gonna hurt me to be reviewed with all the december takers?

Depends on how confident you are as far as improving your score. You're dead middle on their medians though, so unless you make a jump of like 10 points, I doubt the LSAT can pull you any $$$ with them.

I'm fairly sure USC is rolling, which means the earlier the better for you. If you're worried about actual admissions, I'd definitely just let them go with what you have.
