What are my chances for DC schools?
Would it be stupid to apply for top 20?
Should I re-take?


It was my second take. My first LSAT was 148 (14 months ago).
I'm planning on submitting my application on the first possible day.
Also, I'm an Asian American.

What's my best ED bet for a DC school?

I really appreciate your help, thank you.

+1. You are not a URM for the purposes of law school admissions.

Yeha, I would retake for DC schools if that is your goal.
