Hey everyone,
I just graduated with a political science degree and a minor in economics this past December. I have a 3.59 GPA and a 165 LSAT, but I took the LSAT when I had mono, and had averaged 170-171 over the last 5 practice tests I took prior. The schools I am applying to are Vanderbilt, Emory, University of Tennessee, Notre Dame, and GWU.
My question is should I go ahead and apply to these schools, as I am below the medians on several, or wait a year and retake? I have read alot on the forums here that splitters, which I hope to become if I retake, do not necessarily have a better chance at admission, and that it largely depends on which median the school is trying to pull up. Thank you in advance for yalls advice.

Re: Retake or Apply?
You have literally no reason not to take the LSAT again. Consider applying next cycle with your 171 and prepare to have money thrown at you by many schools who would likely reject your current numbers.
