😖 Frustrated

June LSAT uncertainty

Hi all! Some context: i've been studying since January, quite inconsistently if I might add. I have 3 kids, Im a full time paralegal, and currently finishing up my masters. Im a nontraditional student and planning on applying to law school in this upcoming cycle. My UPGA, unfortunately, is below average for my top schools so I need to offset with my LSAT score. Ive taken the LSAT once before 4 years ago and got a bad score with 0 studying. Im aiming for a high 160 low 170.

Now, when I do a timed practice test, I am consistently getting in the mid 140's. Mind you - my testing environments are horrible. I have kids yelling and screaming, im sleep deprived from a newborn, and burnt out from work/school. But when i take the time to slow down and blind review, my BR score is in the low 160's. Now my question is, is my target score feasible for the June LSAT? I know they say your BR is more consistent with your true score. I have been feeling very unconfident for the exam and wanting to put it off but im about to hit my 30's and dont want to put off law school much longer. When I drill, I do really well so I have the understandings of the questions down its more so translating that accuracy into really exam setting. Can I do it for June or not? Help!

@KimberlyLoki222 Idk to be honest. Ive heard that they dont look at your application until youve finalized all your scores. So if youre planning on retaking in October, lets say, then it pushes back your application slightly. This is just what ive heard so dont take my word for it! I just heard that if you can have everything finalized for sept 1st apps then youre in a better place than if youre retesting in sept/oct/nov.

i was down to A, C and D. chose C initially and then really dove deep in BR where i came down to A and D, felt like A was better because i dont see where it talks about the weight.......

Currently in the same boat.. working full time, finishing up my masters, and I have 3 kids. recently got surgery done and fell behind like 8 days. i was supposed to start the practice period this past week. i took a diagnostic at a 149 back in feb so im like would i be good to score mid 160s in June?? I want to be able to get my app early so i can qualify for good scholarships but im at a standstill. i think im giving myself til right before the deadline to register for june and see where my PTs are hitting. if theyre not close to my target, im going to postpone to august. if theyre close/hitting my target, i think im going to test june and leave august to retest which puts me in a good place with early decision. and if i HAVE to retest (which hopefully i dont) then retest in october.

Was between E and C and chose E at first because i could not, for the life of me, understand what C was saying.
