please stop saying an answer is wrong because of "what!" like I just need to know why that answer is wrong

keep it! not a bad score at all! improvement will only look better on applications

I would love to!

that's a great score, don't cancel. only seriously cancel if its a very bad school. you are still above median for a lot of great schools. if you retake and score higher, it will only look better on your applications.

im kind of the sick of the explanations being "uh no duh"

this makes no sense to me. our conclusion is that they should use one over the other. so then why is the answer saying that both are useful to the student if that wasn't the overall point of the passage?

Would your GPA be higher on your law school applications? I know most of them with be submitted before this seamster is over. A higher GPA will not hurt, but it may be more important to apply earlier in the cycle rather than later.

Hi! I have had the same situation, took the Sept. LSAT and didn't get the score I wanted with covid. My UGPA is lower than preferred, so im retesting this November. Go ahead and take the LSAT this November and then keep studying. When your score releases, if it's really below what you need, there is no harm in testing in January. Waiting to apply is scary, but at the same time an improved lsat score will help you tremendously. Until then, take a few days off and then start to review the sections you have issues with one by one until you master them. Goodluck with applications!
