Planning to retake/reapply, how should I handle waitlists?

I've been waitlisted at Duke, Penn, UVA, and Chicago (and anticipating possible W/L from Columbia, NYU, and Harvard). All are schools that I am planning to reapply to, so I want to play this right. Should I send LOCIs? Withdraw? Do nothing?

I would think that withdrawing would be the best option. YP schools will be ticked off if you are planning to withdraw and still try to get admitted.

Withdraw. If you want, you can inform them that you are going to retake and try again next cycle.

TLS works! Where the correct answer is ALWAYS retake. Just ask Dave Hall and Robin Singh. You can never take the LSAT too many times!

Makes sense with a 3.6 GPA.
