LSAT Dates

Hi everyone,

I know the announcement is probably going to be delayed because of COVID uncertainty, but does anyone know when the LSAC normally releases the dates for the summer (May/June and onwards)? If anyone had any insight into when they might do it this year that would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, if they announce June and July as flex dates, would it be possible that they might transition these sessions into in-person LSAT for these dates depending on the COVID process?

Admissions · Should I retake? (splitter)

I would probably not retake but I would add more schools to that list. This past cycle and by extension next year's cycle has been really unkind to splitters---at most schools but particularly the t14. LSAT scores have been inflated by the flex and after this cycle LSAT scores for most schools are going to shoot up. Now, I'm not saying you won't get into a t14 BUT from a purely bargaining standpoint unless you can afford full price at these schools I would expand further downwards than just WashU. If you don't believe me, watch the medians before you apply and check law school numbers and forums for scholarship outcomes.

Admissions · 150 LSAT and 3.9 GPA, do I have a chance?

Agreed with the Logician, there's a law school that's willing to take any combination of GPA and LSAT, including yours which really isn't bad, by the way. You have a really solid GPA and I understand that the LSAT is challenging, but unfortunately, that LSAT is prohibitive. Although a law school will admit you, not all law schools are worth going to and it will be hard to find a law school that is both affordable and will place you into a job post-grad with a 150. Take some time and raise your LSAT before applying even if that disrupts the timeline you have for your life. What would you say are your biggest challenges with the LSAT?
