Often I'd take PTs, feel awful about it, but end up with a score at the high end of my range, so I wouldn't get too down. Plus there's still time before Dec. to get it right

I know what you mean, but the games really threw me off and I have no clue how I did on RC. Definitely giving it my all in December!

Checking in! AA Female.... Just took the October LSAT and hoping that my score is good enough to avoid taking it in December.

Also checking in -- AA male, 3.67 uGPA from HYP (does this actually help?) and currently with a 165 from June, though hopefully the October retake helped bump me over 168. I think it might have, but *shrug*.

You should be good at HYS, good money from T10, nearly full at bottom half of T14. You're similar to an admissions unicorn. Enjoy the ride.

Where is everyone hoping for?

*fingers crossed for H *

[MarshallMarshal]

Hoping for H but also feeling excited about NYU and the West Coast. Who knows.

Same! Minus the west coast part lol. I have always dreamed of H but the idea of CCN is exciting as well!

Do any 170+ scorers have tips on how to make the most efficient study schedule possible (2 month timeline)? Is it necessary to be putting in 40 hours a week studying? I feel terrible when I can only fit in ~25-30.

Berkeley, Texas or USC here.

I think my mom has always dreamed of me going to H but I'm holding out hope for Yale. I'd also be perfectly happy with CCN (Chicago most out of the three) or any place that would take me, really.

Who is 170+ in here? I know the answer will (hopefully) change once October/December scores come back, but I'd love to see how the number of 170+ URM scorers in here compares to the total number of 170s that should be expected according to the black by the numbers thread.

I'll start by saying that I'm not one of them lol

You're right, the amount in here will hopefully change (for the better) once Oct scores roll out. I know in last years thread there were a few, but I'm hoping there's at least a couple in here with us right now

Checking in here too! Like many of you, I didn't so hot last cycle. Was waitlisted at like every top school, submitted my apps late, and had just an okay LSAT score.

Retook it in Oct, hopefully things work out better this time around!

And what do you mean by late? January? Or earlier?

I may possibly be in the 170+ club depending on the curve and how RC went.

[jnwa]

Hey guys, checking in African Canadian male hoping for t6 or im staying in Canada lol. Hopefully should be in the 170+ club when scores come back at the end of the month, prepped as high as 176 on the pt75 the day before the test. Now im working on my personal statement while sitting in prep limbo. Im thinking anything less than a 174 im gunna rewrite in dec.

I'm 167 but might possibly (most likely not tho ) with my Oct. score, although I'm currently prepping for a final re-take in December. I do think we should keep a tally of specifically AA 170+ scorers. My GPA is pretty shitty so I need a high score to make up for it
