LSAT:151
Major: Comp Sci
Minor: Comp E
GPA: 3.4


So long story short I registered for the June LSAT. Only thing I did to prep was take two PTs (145, 147 respectively)

I plan on retaking in October and studying extensively until then. Just trying to see worse case scenario, what schools do I have a shot with?

None that are worth it. You made a correct decision to retake.

Ill narrow this down

Syracuse
Catholic
Gonzaga
Quinnipiac

I realize these schools aren't ideal, (Barring catholic). Just contingency planning here.

If you want New England, I'd only look at schools in that region. You aren't going to get back there from Washington state.

Retake.

Your gpa right now puts you in reach of BC/BU if you put the leg work into raising your LSAT.

With legit prep your score should skyrocket. There are no options worth considering with a 151. Good luck bro. Give it all you got this time.

Your best bet is to check lawschoolnumbers.com or lawschoolpredictor.com

But here's some advice: Focus on getting a way better score in October and forget about those schools. Don't be satisfied with what you can (or can't, I don't know these schools well) get right now and focus on what you WILL get when your hard work pays off in October.
