Do law schools look at your highest LSAT score or do they combine all of them together and look at the average?

The tend to only care about the average but other law schools aside from Yale (NYU, for example) say on their website that they consider all LSAT scores. It's obvious from apps on LSN that clearly they don't seem to care that much, but I suppose it's something to consider; e.g., don't take the LSAT cold and get a 140 LSAT score.
I think you meant they tend to only care about the highest.
I did! Thank you :smile:

HAHAHA omg that was great, but yeah still not applying!
haha, your choice! :) also one thing to note is once your score is at or above the schools 75th percentile, your other scores will have even less of a value on your application. All the best!

Thank you, good to know! Also I'm definitely not applying to Yale haha!

Highest! Thank goodness :D except maybe Yale...
"except maybe Yale" I feel like that line alone can yield its own search in LSAT forums lol. But yeah, @gregoryalexanderdevine723 is correct.
Highest! Thank goodness :D except maybe Yale...
