Re: ideal lsat score for a 3.7 gpa urm aa male?
That's still generally right. I think you're much safer at H if you can get into the 167+ range, but yes 160 should still be good to get you in somewhere, and 163/164 should start getting you some really good money.
Of course, do your very best on the test though...shoot for 180 and let your score dictate whether or not you need to retake.

160-165 can get you in some places, but it's always best to just do the best that you can because you can get some nice $$$.

Ideally-180
Realistically-165+
I feel like that is what everyone should aim for

You never know until you try bro, you may surprise yourself. My cold diagnostic score was in the low 150s and I ended up with a 174. You may have already heard this from others but I'll say it just in case you haven't; you should forget about the boost while you're studying. Thinking about the boost can foster complacency and you may underperform as a result, I'm dead serious. Work your ass off as if you weren't going to receive it and aim for a 180. It's okay if you don't score in the 99th percentile, just as long as you try to do the best you can to reach your potential. Don't half-ass it, or aim for a score you may be more than capable of outperforming just because you'll receive the boost.uhwrestler wrote: i think i can realistically score between 160-163 but 165 might be a bit of a reach for me.
Edit: Just went through your post history, and saw that you've already taken the LSAT. Based on the content of your post I presume you have a sub-160 LSAT, even if that's the case, you're capable of improving, hit the books and study up and boost the score up.

I second all of this, including a similar bump from diagnostic to actual score after studying like a fiend for 6 months.yaliehopeful wrote:You never know until you try bro, you may surprise yourself.
