If a school encourages submitting SAT scores for an LSAT addendum (ie Michigan, Berkeley, etc), how low should the score be to show you’ll outperform your LSAT score? I honestly can’t tell if my SAT score was low enough to prove that on an addendum because it's been so long since high school

Can an addendum ever hurt your application? Specifically in the case if you’re not sure whether or not the addenda is necessary, but feel inclined to put one.

Additionally, if you have a notably lower LSAT score than the median scores of a school you are very interested in and feel you would succeed at, should you be including an addenda for that?

What are examples of extracurriculars you would like to see/have seen from an applicant who graduated undergrad 5-10 years ago?
