Just got my November LSAT score and feel very disappointed, especially I spent my vacation time to study and I usually land in the mid 170s. I plan to apply as early as I can in 2023. What are my chances for T14 + UCLA USC?

You have a shot at a lower T14 if you write a great personal statement and thoughtfully present your experience in the best way possible in your resume and application. Get input on your essay and application from multiple individuals whose opinion you respect.


Considering I would have been working for 2 years at the time of my application, is it ok to use professional reference? My work is very research-based and relevant to law.

2 years isn't that far out. Use a professor in addition to the professional reference.

Because I studied abroad in my junior year and quarantined in my first semester senior year, those semester I have almost entirely pass/fail classes. Would that affect my application too much?

No.

Any comments are welcome. Thanks!
