What schools do I have a shot at getting accepted with my 3.8 GPA at UCF and a 152 on LSAT? I am an awful standardized test taker, but a great student.

you must.must.must. retake. study your ass off, take a class, eat, sleep, dream the lsat. a 152 is not going to get you into any school worth going to.

Edit: I really should be getting a kickback from LSAC.

I am not opposed to retaking, I already did and scored the same although I was scoring around 159 and 160 on pretests.

No one cares. You must retake.

There's no reason you can't up your score 10 points, if not more.

No reason not to at least try a third time (or 4th/5th/6th/etc if you can get a waiver from a school).

It sounds like you're having bigger issues with nerves than ability. Take more preptests under simulated conditions (IE, a proctor other than yourself).

Thanks guys for all the helpful feedback! I think retaking it again is the best choice.
