Hi there,
I just got back my December LSAT score and it was worse than I thought. It was my first time taking it and I got 155, my PT's were in the 159-162 range and BR's were 162-166 range. My GPA isn't great either - Last 2 years- 3.267/4.3 and 3.303/4.33 with drops (in other words about a B average). Do I have a shot at getting in to either Dalhousie or Victoria? Should bother applying now for this September (2016) or just boost my lsat and wait for september 2017. I really don't want to wait another year, but I would be in a rush to finish my personal statement in time for this year. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks

I mean, it doesn't hurt to try but I definitely think you are for sure out at Victoria. You can apply to Dal in hopes that maybe they let you in and, who knows, they just might!
You probably already know this, but just in case:
I like to look at the applicant profile grid on LSAC to get a good idea of my chances for different schools. Here's what they have for Victoria (scroll to bottom)

Thanks for the feedback. Not so much a reality check, but rather a confirmation of what I already thought. I'm very confident I could get a higher lsat score next time around. I just didn't want to wait a whole year for the next cycle and friends were saying I could definitely get into Dal and possibly Vic (although I was skeptical). Thanks again
I wouldn't. I have a better GPA than you and I applied last year with a 157 LSAT and didn't get into Victoria. I would say out for Dalhousie as well.
Don't get discouraged! You can do it!!!!
sorry for the reality check: you have almost no chance at either school unless you are applying in the indigenous category.
