Retaking LSAT for WL Forum

[confusedprelaw]

I know I have seen this somewhere around here, but I can't seem to find it, so I figured I should go ahead and ask.

I was wondering how everyone felt about retaking the June LSAT in order to boost chances of getting in off the waitlist/if anyone has any experience with it? I'm content with the group of schools I got into, but there's one school in particular I'm hoping to get into off the WL and was looking at ways to boost my chances. I figured since I'm at about the 25% LSAT score, retaking it might help my chances? But could it harm me in any other way (other than spending time studying)?

Definitely retake. I personally know several people who got waitlisted by their reaches, retook the LSAT to get above the median, and got in with $$.

The downside is that if you don't improve you probably won't get in off the WL, but you probably won't get in if you don't retake, either.
