Hey all,
I have been waitlisted at University of Washington and Boston College and I'm certain that my LSAT score was the reason for this. I am planning to retake in June to either get off waitlists this year or reapply next year with a better score.
Are people generally successful at gaining admission off of waitlists if they retake the June LSAT and perform better (5+ point increase)? Does anyone here ( hint hint, JY Ping & co. :D) have any suggestions for how to approach retaking the LSAT? I've used much of my study material already...

Retakeeeee
They may be willing to negotiate if someone plays one offer against another... there are people who got increases in money all the way into June last cycle... but admittedly it gets harder as the purse shrinks
I don't think Boston College will have any money left at that point in the summer. They have been giving out very low offers to people who are qualified. For example, someone got in a Cornell with 90k/3years and Notre Dame with 120k/3years and only got 60k/3years at BC.
I'm confused why they are giving out such low offers this year. It's very strange...
some schools might, hard to say this late in the game
I'm curious to know if you retake in June would they have money to offer those that are wait-listed?
thank you @nielsinha488 S
Thanks Nilesh S!
What do other people think about study practices for a retake?
Also GREAT work on the networking!!! That is what gets you across the line!!!
@181 that is EXACTLY why you should place more emphasis on the BR... focus more on the process than the product... Also check out this video
Yeah, I'm also planning campus visits at these schools before I do my re-write. Mostly so that they can put a face to my applications and I can get someone on the adcomm to advocate for me.
I'm already doing blind review as I did for my first LSAT. I just worry that re-doing PT's might be less beneficial, especially if I remember the answers instinctively...
Definitely... you improve your standing on the wait-list with a better score, in fact, it is one of the best things you can do to get off a wait-list. As for your retake, go thru the fundamentals again like you were prepping the first time round and BR the hell out of your PTs... write out why you think the answer you chose is right and also why you think the other choices are wrong... re-doing PTs is HIGHLY underrated.
