Not in the slightest - schools only have to report the highest score so they really only care about the highest score. This is supported by years of applicants / most of the schools' own websites. I wouldn't listen to your counselor about much of anything regarding law school. Sounds like she literally pulled that number (171) out of thin air

Power score counselor. They're only 100 an hour so I figured I'd give it a try so far has not been too helpful
You're paying someone $100 an hour to be an admissions counselor?

I'm starting to suspect that I've left a lot of money on the table. :/

I'm sure every admissions officer in the country would love to hear in detail about your 180 watch

I like how you paid a dude $100 to tell you objectively wrong information.
