Hit below my PT range of 170-172.
Shooting for UCLA/USC and maybe Georgetown/NU. Should I be ok at the LA schools and have a shot at the others with a 3.6/169 split?
Or should I retake? Don't really want to wait to apply.
I won't list softs because I don't think they really matter.
PS is solid.
Thanks for the input.

Re: 3.6/169. UCLA? NU?
I think you have a great chance at USC and if you're a California resident, a good chance at UCLA because your LSAT is in their 75th percentile.
NU and Georgetown are going to be very long shots. I would retake if you have your heart set on either one. You probably don't want to hear this, but 1 or 2 points would make a huge difference for those two schools.

Ah I know it. -6 on the RC doomed me.sunshinegirl wrote:I think you have a great chance at USC and if you're a California resident, a good chance at UCLA because your LSAT is in their 75th percentile.

Would you say retake in Dec and apply after or apply then retake and submit addendum if WL?
Also, if I wait and score worse will it hurt my chances?

If you have your heart set on a T-14, then your best bet is to retake and apply next cycle. If you play around with mylsn.info, you'll notice that you're a lock at GULC RD and have great chances at NU RD with a 2-point increase.Ah I know it. -6 on the RC doomed me.

I'm a big advocate of applying early (before November), so I'm against the idea of scrambling to prepare for the December LSAT and submitting this cycle. I'm not sure how schools view a score drop - try searching tls a bit more. From what I've read, it seems like some schools won't care at all, but I still think it doesn't look great.
