Does higher score really mean higher score?

Hey everyone,

Hope everyone had a successful take today. I had a quick question about what scores law schools look at. I know it obviously varies between schools but do schools who say they evaluate the top score do so even if a more recent score is not the highest? I got a 165 in September but only missed 2-3 on LG. This test, I felt a lot more confident on RC and a little more confident on LR but LG was rough to me. I ended up guessing on probably 3 questions.

Is it worth considering cancelling?

With the exception of Yale, I've heard schools just take the highest score and pay little mind to any lower scores.

Cornell as this strange policy where you have to score 3 points higher than your first score in order for them to take your new score. But they also say if your new score isn't 3 points higher, then you can write a letter to them explaining why they should take the score and they might give it to you..

But I don't think you should cancel.
