Hello, I just got my august score and I got a 167 and this was my third attempt. My question is my target score is a 170 so I would like to take it again but is it worth it to take the test a 4th time to potentially get a 170? I heard that taking the test 3 times or less is better if possible, so my question at the end of the day is, is it better to have 3 attempts on your record and a score of 167 or 4 attempts and (hopefully) a score of 169-170?
Hi. I just got back my score on the August LSAT and got a 156. This was my first test and I was PTing around 163-165 but after I took the test I knew I did worse than my PTs because my nerves and my anxiety got the best of me. At one point I couldn't even focus on the test and I was just reading the words on the screen without really understanding them. With this being said, should I cancel my score or is it fine if it is lower than I wanted and should keep it because hopefully I will improve on it on future tests? Would greatly appreciate any feedback
Depends why it is on hold. If its on hold because you did not take your argumentative writing, then you must take that first if you haven't taken one. If you did take your argumentative writing, it will be on hold until that is approved (took mine 3 days to be approved but it can take up to 3 weeks). I would probably call LSAC and ask them why your score is on hold, so that you can resolve it as as soon as you can.
