Also, what was your diagnostic? That's a great gpa, and it'd be a shame to leave money on the table if you could break into 160+...

Don't bother asking. Everyone here is going to tell you to retake because, quite frankly, it's what you should do.

Unless by "personal reasons" you mean that there is some sort of ticking time bomb that you can only defuse with a law degree, I really think that you should reconsider. I took a year off and retook and got some exposure as a paralegal in biglaw, and it was probably the best decision that I ever made.

I am not trying to be a dick. You will thank us someday for saying this.

I don't think TLS is the place to ask this question. There are multiple sites that can attempt to answer that for you: LSAC, Lawschoolnumbers, mylsn, etc. However, this forum can definitely give advice on whether Rutgers with/without money is worth not retaking the LSAT. I highly advise you to browse the forum and consider if you're willing to settle for Rutgers even with money.

You'll get in, and you'll likely get significant scholarship money at Rutgers. You have an excellent GPA, and your LSAT is 1 point below the 75th percentile. That said, it really would be worthwhile for you to retake. I'm a student here, and I like it, but you'll have to realize that your options from RU-N will be limited.

Agreed. OP, where all did you apply? It seems to me that if you were to apply broadly at the start of next cycle, even without doing anything to improve your stats/resume, you'd have considerably more options: several other schools with money/full rides & quite possibly T-14 acceptance. If you are 100% sure about Rutgers, I wouldn't take anything below a full ride, as your stats warrant that.
