Retake vs withdrawal Forum

[VA21]

Thanks you guys for taking the time to read my post. If there are similar ones to mine out I apologize for the repetitiveness, but I wanted to gauge some opinions on my upcoming exam.

I'm scheduled to take the LSAT on Monday, but have been consistently scoring 155 on my PTs. I have had about 2 1/2 months to prepare for this and definitely don't feel I've used my last few weeks as wisely as I could have. My UG GPA was sub 3.0 with significant upwards trending the last 3 years after a rough start. I say that to ask if you think it'd be wiser to withdraw my June exam date and register for the October one, vs just taking the June and retaking if necessary.

I've used the power score bibles and while they've helped me significantly, I haven't had the proper time to review my mistakes and really drill my weak areas. I've done roughly 8 PTs with a couple more to complete before test time.

Personally due to my low GPA I'm leaning towards retaking it. Also keep in mind ideally I'd like to score 165, no lower than 160.

Sorry for the long post but I'm stressing and would like the advice of people who have gone through the process. Any feedback is appreciated.

Definitely wait to take the LSAT until you are peaking

Esp since you are PTing in the 150s

The consensus will be to wait. If you're not scoring within 5 points of where you want to be then its worth taking.
