When to take the LSAT again? Forum

First time poster but long time lurker here.

I took the LSAT last December and got a 154. Now, I'm determined to head into law school and while I dream of a 180, realistically I'd be happy to get into the high 160's or, better, break into the 170s. Currently, I'm of the mindset that the Sep/Oct. administration is the better one for the retake. There's more time overall to study; I won't feel under the gun with just two months till the exam; and I can get a seat at a test center closer to where I live (I'm in NYC).

The one advantage I can think of with taking the exam in June is I'm done with the LSAT sooner. Other than that, I really can't think of any. Is there any advantage in taking the June exam?
