Top Law Schools

I've been accepted at a T14 that's my top choice, but because my GPA is at their 25 and my LSAT is at their median, I'm not expecting much (if any) money.

I know I can crush the LSAT in June, but let's say I score a 174 (up from the 167 that got me admitted). Does this guarantee more scholarship money for the fall? And if not, won't I already have had to deposit with a school by June?

I guess my question is if I am better off sitting out this round and retaking to apply next cycle, even though I've got a bunch of acceptances, or accepting with my top choice, retaking, and then bailing in the event that I don't get any money for the fall. If I went the latter route, would I be able to reapply for the next cycle still? Thanks for any input.

It does not guarantee more scholarship money. You can put in your seat deposit, retake, withdraw, and reapply if you don't get the scholarship offer increased.

Thanks. I guess 'guarantee' was a dumb word. I meant could it lead to. But if not, withdraw and reapply is what I'll do I guess. No way can I go at sticker or anywhere near it.
