171 LSAT.... Rewrite?

Post by 10ply » Fri May 09, 2014 10:10 pm

3.97 GPA. Wrote the LSAT in June 2013. I studied for a little over a week. I'm now thinking about rewriting, I feel like I could really benefit from a month of logic games studying. Considering that logic games killed me last time around, I feel as if a 175-177 is pretty attainable.

My question is how beneficial would a 175+ score be? Increased scholarship money from T14? Better admission chances at HYSCCN?

I apologize if this is an ignorant question. I'm from Canada, and this is the first time I've really considered US law schools so I'm not very knowledgeable. For what it's worth, I have average softs but nothing spectacular.

It's def worth it. Study hard and you'll be close to 180 with ease, which will mean HYS and CCN with money..

If you think you can score higher, then study hard for a few months and retake. It could mean hundreds of thousands of dollars saved, plus better job opportunities.

I think 3.9x/171 would have a decent shot at HS. Retake would be good for big $ at CCN or Y though.
