Even if you weren't a URM you should be able to grab a T14 spot with those numbers. Since you are, I'd guess you have a fair chance at a T6.

Enjoy your numerous acceptances and scholarship offers.

what if one had the same numbers, but were not URM..is T10 out of the question?

Would it be beneficial to retake the LSAT in October/December after my application is already in?

But you won't have to study as much; You already know the material. I was averaging around 173-174. I plan to take a minimalist approach and try not to tire myself of incessantly looking over questions and sections. Just make sure you retain it and go in and give it a whirl, you already have the comfort of a 170. Perhaps this time around those nerves won't be as rattled.

Who can really say? To each his own. I know that for me its all mental, I know the material...anyone at 168+ really does. I miss easy questions due to silly mistakes I make after looking too long and too hard at LSAT questions. In June I missed 2 questions before 10 on an LR section. Those two questions alone would put me at a 172 and I'd be looking at more school with more scholarship opportunity.

idk about this bro, i got a 170 on the Feb LSAT and foolishly thought I could go up without studying too much. I ended up with a 168 on the June LSAT.

Then again, I was no longer interested in law school so I really half-assed it. YMMV

[JohnBoy]

You just completely lost interest after getting a 170? How did that happen?

I would suggest not EDing to Columbia because I honestly think you might have a shot at HYS with your background/softs/numbers. However, if you really really want Columbia, ED to Columbia and you're practically in, IMO.
