166, 3.7. UCLA ED. Retake questions?
Posted: Mon Oct 07, 2013 2:31 pm
Hey TLSers,
I was wondering whether this belonged here or the "what are my chances?" board, but I decided it was more relevant here.
I took the June LSAT and scored a 166. I was a little disappointed with it, so I sat for the October test... and ended up canceling it after having a minor freak out on one section. My average PT score over 20 tests (after June) was 172, with a range of 170-177. I only went under 170 three times out of the 20 tests I took. I really think I can do better in December, which is why I registered, but I also strongly want to get the application process over with for personal reasons. (Work has been very busy... 12+ hour days, and I'm getting married soon, which is why I'd like assurance of going somewhere before then.) If I got into UCLA, I'd be very happy to attend, regardless of what I get in December. Is a 166 with a 3.7 good enough for UCLA with ED? I have decent softs-- I'm several years out of college and have extensive work with non-profits.
Also, practically speaking, would schools even consider apps, regardless of ED, if they see that I'm registered for a test in December? I'm also thinking about sending an app to Berkeley, so I'm just wondering what the process is.
Thanks!
