Also made an appointment to get another LoR since one of my recommenders dropped off the face of the planet and I scheduled a job interview. If I wind up getting the job, I think I'm going to really regret signing up for the retake instead of being happy with my score.

What kind of job is it?

?!? Is that what it costs with the late fee!!!

I signed up a few days back, came to $265. $170 to get on the waiting list, $90 for a late registration fee. In my case, I think of it as an idiot tax for failing to sign up sooner when I damn well knew that I should have registered for the Dec test as I left the October test center facility.

iirc if you were waiting on Oct score to sign up for Dec test then you may be eligible for refund of late registration fee by lsac upon request

Thanks - I will definitely look into getting a refund then.

do you guys think I should PT after studying for 2 weeks (4 weeks of PT's + drilling)? Is that sufficient? I'd like to spend at least this week purely on drilling since I need to get any rust off

Are you retaking? (I'm retaking)
For me, your plan sounds solid if you're retaking. I'm planning on doing the same. Never underestimate how a month of hard studying can do!

Yeah that sounds pretty solid. I'm so rusty too- it's pretty depressing

does everyone get fee waivers from schools? got one from Duke even though I flopped on the Oct LSAT and got a 163. figured it's either cause of my GPA or everyone just gets them.

Wahhh. Congrats. Yes, if you already took the LSAT and if the score is within their fee waiver purview you would get it. I currently got waivers from UVA and Michigan. Didn't get one from Duke though.
