LSAT

Post by netsfan05 » Sat Oct 06, 2012 3:28 pm

Hey so I'm somewhat stuck in a dilemma. I recently took the LSAT, knowing i wasn't 100 percent prepared, mainly because I wanted to see what it was like test day. I wasn't scoring high on practice exams and never broke 160. Should I cancel my score or should I just wait for the results? There is a possibility I might have even scored in the high 140's! Do law schools take every exam under consideration and average them? Im interested in the university of maryland btw. Even if they don't average your scores, I would hate it if I had to explain why I scored a 148 on the exam the first time and then why I scored a 162 the second. Options anyone? Thanks!

Cancel. If you're unsatisfied with your performance and know you will do better in the future, you really have no business keeping that score on record.

Yeah, this seems clear-cut. I'd cancel.

Can't think of a reason not to cancel unless you are cool with going to a T4 at full price... and under no circumstances should you be cool with that.

Thanks! You all more than helpful. I have two more months to prepare. Any chance I can still break into the 160's?
