Include Retake in LOCI? Forum

[coreaves23]

Writing my LOCI to the four T14 schools at which I am WLed. Should I include that I will be retaking the June LSAT to try and improve my score?

Wasn't sure if this would hurt or help my cause.

Thanks in advance for your help!

@NoDayButToday -- You hit it exactly. Don't want to shoot myself in the foot if they are considering letting me in, but also don't want to be released from WL because of my LSAT score before retake.

Any wisdom that you have heard from others? What would you ultimately decide?

If you have already signed up for the test, LSAC automatically lets them know so it doesn't matter

@izzlelay-- thanks a ton! I had no idea. I already sent my LOCI without LSAT info, so it sounds like I (luckily) made the right call.

I don't think this is true. I called up LSAC before signing up for the test and they said that schools to which you have already applied do not see that you are signed up for the test. When you receive a score, however, the school gets notified of the new score.
