Desperately need advice on what to do for April LSAT

WickedLost

Like a lot of people, I had multiple connection issues while testing yesterday. They all happened during the same RC section so I had to re-read each time and then I also lost 4 minutes because of my proctor's mistake. I had two RC sections in my exam so there's a 50% chance that the one I had issues on doesn't count. I feel good about the rest of it and now I don't know whether I should retake it in May or take the gamble and use my first-time preview score on yesterday's exam.

I would be really grateful for any thoughts/advice!

I would wait and see your score before making a choice! I think the Score Preview only counts for first-time test takers (?)...So I would say do both. Wait and see your score. If its good keep it, if not use the score preview/remove it and retake. If you didn't like your score at all, I would maybe study longer (than May) in order to yield better results. The exams are pricey... I would make every one of them count !

thank you for the input! thankfully I had already signed up for June as a backup so I do have that option

Since law schools only look at the highest score so that they can report that, I would just retake it and leave whatever score you received to be a witness to how you improved. I am assuming that you have more takes left.

Wait until you see what your score is before you make a decision.
