If you tell them to go ahead and process your app despite having a future LSAT on file they will do just that. If that means they straight up reject you before your new score is in, and suddenly you do better, you are SOL for this year for that school. You can't reapply the same year, even with a marked improvement on LSAT.
This is VERY interesting. If what you say is true, no one should apply to a specific law school early until they get a sufficient LSAT score. Applying before you receive your retaken score would then be a mistake. This is a HUGELY important point. I wish this thread would be made into a sticky thread.
