Sounds to me like you should do it in October. If there is any chance you won't be fully prepared for your test, there is no sense rushing it. Also, don't mess up your GPA worrying about the LSAT, especially if you have the summer to study. You don't get a chance to redo your GPA. You'll know your results in October, and applying in October/November is very early in the cycle--you'll be fine.drake wrote:I am currently a junior, but I am not sure whether or not I should take the test in June or October. I haven't really studied for the test that extensively yet, and I am not sure if I will be ready by June. I really want to do well this semester in school, so I feel that I should just direct all my time and energy to school work instead of dividing them up.
I will have a lot of free time over this summer (basically the entire summer is free), and it seems like a better idea to spend my summer prepping for the LSAT, as boring as it may sound haha.
However, I've done some research and it seems like most of the people are suggesting that the best time to take the LSAT is in June. Is taking the LSAT in October a bit too late in the process? I was hoping to apply early to increase my chances at the schools that I will be applying to.
Some people suggested that one should leave October open for a 2nd testing if needed, but I am planning on taking the LSAT just once - one shot, all or nothing.
Although I did spend some time lurking on these boards and reading up on some helpful information provided, I am basically a newbie to this whole LSAT/Law school process and I was hoping you guys could give me some advice on this matter.
