So I scored a 158 on my LSAT. On my PTs I was scoring around 159-162. I can't decide whether to apply now or just wait for the retake. I want to apply early in order to increase my chances...but I also want a retake...but to be honest I don't know by how much I can increase my score. I'm still scoring around the same right now and my highest has still been 162. I can probably score a 160 (worst case scenario) in December but I don't want to blow my chances by applying late...
would a 2 point increase really matter? or should I just go ahead and apply? I really need some advice...
background info
URM (first generation mexican-american)
3.09 GPA
not applying to anywhere spectacular but UC Davis is my first choice.
cancel and apply now or wait for retake? advice please Forum

Don't waste your URM status and settle for that LSAT score. Retake +score higher+get $$$ at your dream school.
