Top Law Schools

I applied to quite a few schools back in early November with a GPA: 3.2, LSAT:160. I retake the LSAT yesterday and I think I might have increased my score to 162-165 depending on the curve. Worst case scenario would be the same score. I am under review at most schools and I don't know if any would reject me outright. Should I call all of them and tell them to wait for my new score? I am a black male.

Thank you

When they asked on the application dates that you took or were planning to take the LSAT, did you put December? If so, they will usually hold off reviewing it until your December score comes in.

Some will and some will not. I wouldn't take a chance. I would just e-mail them a quick note that you took the DEC and you would like them to hold your app to consider that score in your application.

Yes, just to be safe. But make sure they actually wait, which means double check.

I emailed all of my schools to wait for Dec. scores and some of them went ahead and processed me anyway, even after saying they would wait.

Hilariously(I suppose) I applied to two schools(safety-ish) I didn't particularly want to wait, and they're apparently waiting.

It seems like they're more likely to wait than not. I've emailed the schools I definitely want to wait though, but it's interesting that these did as well.

Thank you guys for the input. I decide to ride it i.e. I did not email the schools to wait for my score. So far I have received two acceptances and a deferred. Not too bad.
