Hello All,
Should start submitting my applications to law schools now or after I get my score from the October exam. I took the exam last year in December as well.
Thank you!

I actually asked this question in the thread wherein previous law school deans of admission/spivey are answering questions, and the response I got was that it is best to wait for your October score. This is because applying at the end of October is still plenty early, and though you'll be applying a few weeks later, that time difference is more than offset by the benefit that could arise from schools initially seeing a higher LSAT score.
Thanks. I try. I just looked through OPs post history. Probably a good choice to wait and apply, especially if you are aiming for T14. Anything lower might be fine to go ahead and apply and just let them know you plan to retake with an improvement in your score = more scholarship money. ie. look at mylsn for chances info and see where you stack up with your current numbers, then decide when to apply. But definitely wait for the more reachy schools.

Why don't you just get your application ready while you're waiting for the October test results to come out? That's a good 3 weeks right there.

+1 to that.
