It's hard to chance you without an official LSAT score. There's a big difference between a 155 and a 161.
That GPA should take you far, but you should really sit out the cycle and postpone until June and really put more time into your studies. Even if you score low to mid 160's, you'll be a lock at all the Florida schools and you'll likely get really good money.

Yeah, LSN hasn't been very helpful since most of the mid-150s all have much lower GPAs so it's a weird boat to be in I think :?

Thank you so much - I appreciate your honesty, I'm just really nervous since I keep finding my PT scores tend to bunch around mid to high 150s (155-158) right now, so I'm nervous it might not be enough despite having the GPA I do.

Is any specific section giving you difficulty? If you hit LG drilling hard in the next two weeks, you should be able to improve substantially.

Why not take the LSAT in June? or even September?

It would be a waste of a great GPA to shoot so low.

You're going to get into Florida schools with almost any score and that GPA. Unfortunately once you're accepted your cognitive biases will push you towards attendance regardless of how bad a deal it is or how much better you could do with real study for a retake. As a result I'd recommend just focusing on the June LSAT so you can score high enough (mid-upper 160's) to get a big scholarship in the T-14.

Ha that's what I get for a late night post after a couple.

I agree, OP should not take February. Or at least should fully intend to take June and September. The February test is not a good investment, especially for your first exam.

OP, you should set an intensive LSAT study schedule and devote all of your energy to that. As an aside, your sorts are fine but they will not move th needle at all. Aim as high on the LSAT as possible. Do not go to the Florida schools without a huge scholarship.
