LSAT Score older than 5 years, leave it off? Forum

[carl1]

I have 3 scores
161 oct 2010
164 jun 2015
171 oct 2015

The 161 is no longer valid, since it has been 5 years, and probably won't be sent by LSAC (right?). But several schools give the option to write your LSAT scores in the form. Should I leave this 161 off?

Pros:
Shows that I have been interested in law school for a long time.
It is a high score, all things considered. At least I thought it was really good when I got it.


Cons:
I would hate for them to already see the score, and then when I don't send it, it comes off as shady somehow.
It's lower than the other ones.

Leave it off since it is the lowest of your scores.

That score should still be valid. I believe the rule for expiration is 5 years + the year you took your exam. Any 2010 score will expire June next year.

If you still see it in your account, it will be sent with your report. I'm pretty sure you can't "leave it off."

This is correct.
