I am in the same boat as you. Due to extenuating circumstances, I have to take the January LSAT and apply February 1st as this is when the score would be available. I understand that everyone replying with advice about diminishing chances of getting accepted into law school based on the month you apply is doing so with good faith and I am not saying they are wrong either. However, if you are anything like me, seeing replies like these can be disheartening. In your case, my thought would be to simply take the test when YOU feel most comfortable. This is an important score and the LSAT is a beast most don't want to deal with more than once. You will have a good chance of being accepted later in the cycle and your highest possible score will boost those chances. Keep focused on your path and do what is best for you regardless of outside pressures.
