I have started to consider taking the GRE after receiving my September LSAT score and consistently getting similar scores on practice tests I have recently taken. I have had difficulty improving on the logical reasoning portion of the test so it was no surprise that I scored a 145. Based on a high GRE practice test score, which I took before reviewing any material, I feel that I could score in a higher percentile than I would if I were to retake the LSAT. However, could the presence of a very low LSAT score on my application overshadow my potentially high GRE score and a 3.8 gpa?

    As I understand it, schools are forced to report your LSAT score if you have one. So yeah, it'll likely tank your application - Harvard, Columbia, and Northwestern historically haven't been too keen on 145s.

    Plus, though we obviously have no empirical data to back this up yet, I'd be willing to bet a pretty reasonable sum of money that the number of GRE-only admits will be a very low proportion of the class.
