So I took the LSAT in October of this year and I got a 155. I was scoring between a 156-161 during practice tests. I had a total freakout before the test and after it LOL.
I'm not upset with my 155, I just know I can score better than that and I wanna take the test for a third and final time in January, I'm just worried if that's too late. The earliest deadline I have for the law schools I want to apply to is March 1st.
Do you guys think I should just apply now with a 155 or try again in January for a higher score and tell law schools to wait for my January score?
Girl I'm in the same boat as you. I took October and now i'm doing January. Just submit your apps and tell schools to hold off until they get January scores. Trust me it'll take a weight off your shoulders. I think the time away from the studying will honestly help you and ease your mind. I used to go crazy before my October test and took a test every other day and studied each question in between tests. I def overworked myself and burned out. Take your time with this January test. Poooumbaa said it best, more studying doesn't mean you're doing the better. I really think a relaxed mind is they best you can give yourself. You already sound like you have a good score, so don't overwhelm yourself with overthinking and over studying. It won't help you in the end!
