Retaking a 168 (Oct2010) in June?

Post by doukycats » Sun Feb 06, 2011 12:04 am

I took the October 2010 LSAT [Prep: Powerscore Games Bible + Reasoning Bible, but only ~10 PTs --> 168] after some study, and proceeded to apply to schools even though I didn't feel I had studied as much as I should have (I was feeling rather unmotivated at the time). However, I am not particularly happy with how my cycle is turning out and I am strongly considering retaking/reapplying. Has anybody seen significant improvement in similar circumstances?

Any help/advice would be great as I would really love to break into t-14, but I need 170+ since my gpa is a lowish 3.5

Another TLS user created a thread asking this very question just a few hours ago. Amazing. Do you even read the forum?

I recommend that you take it again and June and take ALL of the preptests this time. That will greatly increase your chances of busting into the 170s. Best of luck!

for my retake i actually did the LG bible again. PTs 45-62 should be sufficient if your 168 was legit and not significantly higher than your PT average.
