Crazy to retake a 173?

Hi all!

First, I'm extremely relieved/grateful for the score I received on the April Flex (173), especially because it was my second take. When I took it in January, I had a panic attack on the games section and ended up with a 167, so after that experience all I really wanted was a 173!

That said, my PT average going into the April flex was a 177. I scored a 173 on one of the PTs I took between April and January, and it was my lowest score, but generally I scored from 175-180. So a part of me is thinking I have a decent chance of getting a higher score and why not try? There's a chance too that the medians of HYS will move up for the next cycle, and I don't want to count myself out. My undergrad GPA is a 3.92 from a good school. Since law school is such a huge commitment though, why not get the highest score I can to set me up for the best admissions cycle possible?

One other consideration - I've taken every single PT available, and done every single game ever released. So I'm worried if I study for the June LSAT, I won't have enough materials and may be out of practice since I won't have fresh tests. Is that a real concern? I also truly could not have studied harder for the April LSAT and a part of me just wants to be happy about this score and move on.

Thank you so much for all your thoughts!
