Should I Retake in January? (Canadian Student)

Hi everyone! I need a little advice and I was hoping someone could help me out.

This is my second year applying to law school. Last year I scored a 155 on the September 2019 LSAT, and didn't get accepted anywhere. This time around, I've been doing 7Sage for 4 months, getting through 90% of the core curriculum and doing a bunch of practice tests. I wrote the November 2020 LSAT-Flex and scored a 160. I was a little disappointed in my score when I first got it, because I thought I had scored around 163-164 on the test. Now, I've pretty much come to terms with it.

I'm wondering whether I should rewrite the LSAT in January 2021. I'm applying to Canadian law schools (specifically Ontario ones) and I have a 3.87 GPA. I'm also really confident in my personal essays. All of the schools I've applied to have minimum LSAT scores of 155-157, or median scores of 161.

Is it worth it to rewrite the test in January? Or should I be confident in my 160 and hope for the best?

Hey, congrats on the great score. I would not rewrite the LSAT in January if I were you. a 3.87 GPA coupled with a 160 should be enough to make you competitive at most Ontario schools. I would even say that with a strong personal statement, schools like York and UofT are definitely attainable as well. Good luck with apps, fingers crossed!

Hi, thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind thoughts and your advice! As of now, I've registered for the January LSAT and have been doing practice in the meantime. I got super paranoid and I didn't want to leave anything up to chance, and I also feel like I can score higher. If I end up getting accepted somewhere before January, I'll probably end up cancelling my LSAT date in January, but if not, it doesn't hurt to try again. Thank you for responding!

Yes, I'm pretty sure you should be able to use a mirror!

There's a tool for Ontario law schools to predict admission. It excludes Lakehead and Windsor. https://lawapplicants.ca/predictor

I've used this a bit and found it really helpful! Thank you!

It can be lined, unlined or graph paper!

General · Taking Full Length Tests in 7sage or LawHub

I personally like taking full length exams on 7Sage so I can track my progress and identify problem areas. If you're looking to take the exam in conditions as close as possible to the actual exam, I would recommend doing 1 or 2 tests on LawHub a bit closer to the test date so you can get familiar with the interface! :)

Thank you for that advice! I was stressing myself out a lot about whether my score was good enough, so I appreciate your feedback a lot. I'm going to check out those forums for sure!
