Stats:

158
3.3
URM: Yes
VA resident

Schools applied to:
Georgetown (Reach)
Wisconsin
GMU
Richmond
Emory
Miami

Accepted to so far (no mention of scholarships yet):
Richmond
Miami

So I applied late in the cycle since one of my LOR took forever so that didn't help the situation. Is there any point to going to any of these schools (save for GT)? I know my LSAT score is not the best but part of me wonders if I will have an easier time transferring instead of retaking the LSAT for next cycle (2017). Help me.

Acing 1 test is easier than acing 8 tests.

Well that is true...I didn't think about it that way.

1L is stressful enough without having to worry about transferring. the LSAT is a breeze compared to law school tests b/c you know what you have to do to prepare and if it doesn't go well you haven't already invested $60k in tuition, living expenses, and opportunity costs.

Retake and reapply
