3.9/159 MA URM Forum

[twenty]

Hey cool kids.

So, apparently I did a lot worse on June 2012 than I thought. Frigging RC.

I'll be retaking in October and probably December. Do I...:

1) Apply now (erm, September) for T20-GULC/Cornell, and use future LSAT scores to get munnies?
2) Not apply anywhere until after getting the October score?
3) Realize my score is God giving me a second chance at not making a terrible life decision in going to law school?

I should mention my PTs were in the high 160's/low 170's, so I know with fair certainty I just choked on test day.

Dude you too? I went -12 on RC! It was awful. I really thought I killed RC.

I'm very interested in the responses you'll get. I'm in a similar situation except that my GPA is quite lower and my LSAT is slightly lower but we're both URMs.

Right now I'm feeling like a combination of 2) and 3) personally but I think for you it's definitely 2)

You know from PTs that you can do well. If I were you I would get everything ready, take in Oct., and apply now. Break 165 and you are looking at some good options; you have 3 months to study enough to break 165.

Sorry June didn't turn out the way you wanted, and good luck in October.
