If there is still room, I would love to join as well. Thank you!

I can definitely empathize with your situation. I graduated in May as well and took time off to study full time for the sept. lsat and despite scoring fairly consistently ended up doing less than stellar which in all honesty came down to both nerves and a lack of solid understanding of the fundamentals (and going a little crazy b/c all I did was lsat which I now do NOT recommend, haha). It sucks and while I ended up electing to skip the dec. test and take another year off - even though like yourself I had wanted to keep it an one year - I'm trying to remember all of the positive things that can come with taking a little more time off: (hopefully) a higher score, perhaps more chances for scholarship money, applying at the beginning of the cycle, the opportunity for a little self-growth and all that jazz. You can absolutely retake in Feb, but remember there's no shame in waiting. So many people on this forum have been in similar shoes and have had such awesome comeback stories which makes me a bit more optimistic about the future. One bad test performance doesn't matter, it's how you respond that does.
