Hi all! Just got my October LSAT results and am super displease - I've been PTing 173 and up across 7Sage and LawHub (for the test platform experience) and got a 164 on the exam. This isn't my first time taking the exam and though my scores have consistently gone up, I know I have the ability to get a better score and am thinking of retesting in January.
My question is whether or not I should apply for the 2026 cycle. I have a couple T14s on my school list and the rest are Tier 1s, so almost every school on my app list is now a reach. I have a very strong GPA (3.98/4.00) and diverse experiences reflected in my statements and resume, so I'm trying to figure out what the odds are of me getting in. I know any point increase on another test would increase scholarship but I'm worried that delaying my application from November to end of January will lower my chances of acceptance and merit aid. Thoughts??

This is my EXACT situation!
honestly if ur able to get a/stay in a full time job i would say to apply mext cycle IF you dont meet your January LSAT expectations. you are almost there and dabbling in good expereinces I would say you have a shot at a really good school!
hi! i would think given how strong the rest of your application is, not retaking might be doing yourself a disservice. skipping a cycle is uncomfortable but given that you have the potential to land the 173+ it might end up working out in the end. jan scores release at the end of the month as well so it's reasonable to worry about scholarships running out before then. good luck!!!!
