June 2013 LSAT (re)take Thread Forum

1) Why are you taking/retaking in June 2013?

Because I took the test in December and it was way too soon to take it in Feb, so decided to go for it again in June.

2) What are your previous score(s)?

162 in Dec 2012. Very sad. I, like everyone else, was scoring higher on the practice tests.

3) What is your target score?

170+

I would be interested in hearing what everyone else is doing differently this time than last time. I have studied every practice test, so I am really out of material. I am thinking of hiring a tutor this time around. I feel that if I fine tune a few things, I can get the 8 extra points I'm looking for... What is everyone else doing differently this time?

175+ but would be happy with 170+

Begrudgingly checking in. (Nothing against you all, just this darn test )

1) Why are you taking/retaking in June 2013?

I was not satisfied with my October 2012 score. I tried applying this cycle, just to see how it panned out and it has not gone well enough thus far to warrant my continued attempts to fool myself into thinking a retake will not be necessary. As with all folks, financial considerations are massive and I need those extra points.

2) What are your previous score(s)?

I scored a 167 in October 2012. I had around... 6 weeks of studying I believe. It wasn't what I would call "intensive" study though

3) What is your target score?

180 of course But I am more realistically shooting for a 171, and would be ecstatic for 173+

Good luck to everyone!

dropping in to say good luck to you all, esp. Bex and DD (hi guys!).

If this cycle goes shiTTTy for me in terms of waitlists, i might be joining you guys for the june domination (*knocking on wood*).

1) Why are you taking/retaking in June 2013?

I am extremly, extremly unhappy with my score, and it has been eating away at my soul. I took the test at the end of a 90 hour work week at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot, was mentally and physically exhausted, got blindsided by Zones and !Kung, and froze on game day. I have been selected for a military law education program have been accepted to several good schools and will be attending one in the fall regardless of my new score; I just need to retake for my own personal sanity.

2) What are your previous score(s)?

166 on the October 12 test. 11 points below my PT average.

3) What is your target score?

180

165 in Dec, range in PTs was 166-170

3) What is your target score?

172+, PTing anywhere from 170-180, mostly 173-176

[jya300]

1) Not happy with my Oct 2012 score/ underperformed on the test day.
I even missed really easy LR questions (couple in #1-10) on my first section, probably because I got nervous.
Also got killed by Zones.

2) 169

3) 175+, but I will be happy with anything above 173. Just need several more points plzzzzz
