3.35/171 Retake?
Posted: Wed Dec 16, 2015 3:28 pm
Took the LSAT twice:
December 2014 (163), June 2015 (171)
In between those two tests I studied a ton, but I still feel like I under performed on the test - also for anyone that took the June 2015 test they know it was a difficult curve, -9 = 171 :/ - I hit over 172 pretty consistently with a few 177/78s mixed in
So here's my situtation:
- 3 years WE (Education)
- Already have a T14 acceptance for this cycle, ED'd at Columbia and had an interview already (so I guess if I get in there then the retake choice is already made)
- Sitting out this year was pretty difficult for me and I think I'm ready to start school
Should I retake the test and try to get 3/4 more points? I think I'm entirely capable of doing it, but would February be too late? If my applications are already out, could I prep for February and if I get WL'd at CCN or HLS then could I report that to the schools and be reconsidered?
Thanks for any information and let me know what in here needs to be clarified or expanded upon.
Edit:
Non-URM Male
Went to large public and majored in History, so the GPA isn't super impressive
