LSAC picks such shitty dates. Which LSAT did you choose?

October is midterms, December is finals, February is midterms and June only gives you a month after May finals to prepare! I'm thinking about taking after graduating, but I'm not sure if I can swing the June one and I don't want to risk having to retake after October. February would give me the most time to study but I would hate to spend my last break with my family cramming logic games.

So! Which did you choose and why? And on a personal note, would it be bad to study basics over the summer, take a break over Fall and cram practice tests over the winter break to prep for the February test?

I took it in June....during my finals week. I agree, I wish they had better dates.

I came to the admissions process late, so I had no choice but October. I was conveniently unemployed from my graduation in August (all my requirements were in by July) until November, though.

The dates aren't the greatest. They can work, though.
