I'm actually in the process of studying for it. I asked the question merely because I myself am a Black student aiming for a 180.

What I found interesting is out of the URMs applying this cycle on LSN, the lowest score was a 161.
So I imagine only top applicants post info, meaning your stats are more competitive than you may think if your numbers are good relative to LSN.

Then get your 180. What other people did won't affect what you do.

Did no one ITT take stats? 3 SD doesn't mean anything unless the sample is normally distributed.
