@ How long has it been since you graduated from undergrad? Or are you still in school? I graduated in May so it's still early and I'm in my first gap year. I might wait a year to ensure I'm not rushing because I think my score can increase if I apply myself more. I finished the core curriculum but I still have more PTs to get through, and drills. I don't think I can swing that and write enough essays to make scholarship and early February deadlines.

Apply this or next cycle?

Hi all! I was planning on applying this cycle, but it's already December and I'm late to the game. I took the November LSAT and scored a 154 when my highest PT score was a 159. My GPA is lower than most of the medians of the schools I want to apply to (3.37), so I need a great LSAT score. I want to get at least a 165+. I registered to retake the LSAT in January, and I'm going to request accommodations for extended time which might increase my score, but is it worth it to retake it so soon for just a few points increase? I'll be traveling 2x in December and it'll be the holidays, so I won't be able to study as much. I'm also working part-time as a paralegal, I have to put together my essays, and I want to apply to at least 15 schools.

I'm already at a disadvantage because I'm applying late. Should I keep working for another year and delay my application to apply as soon as the next cycle opens up in September?
