Lower LSAT score

I just received my December score and it's 3 points lower than my highest score (I took June, September, and December). I'm super disappointed because I thought I did much better than September(my highest). How do law schools take this?

    Do you have any idea why you might have underperformed? Maybe you hit a certain score and then lost motivation to improve beyond that point? I'd say you don't have much to worry about, though, honestly.

    Nearly all law schools will only look at your highest score. I believe Yale considers all of them - possibly as an average? I don’t recall exactly. But other than them, it’s nearly unanimous that a school will only consider your highest score.

    I did 1pt lower and I thought that test was easier than a lot of the practice tests I was taking. Whatever. I studied and practiced all this year. Time to move on

    I'm on the same boat as you are. scored 1 point lower in Dec. My June and Sept were a tie. But as @a.youmans said: IT'S TIME TO MOVE ON.

    I'm on the same wavelength as you. I remember leaving the testing room with a smile on my face. I was so confident and believed I did so much better than the September LSAT. I only scored 2 points better this time around. I took it REALLY hard, but I did the best I could've ever done so like you said "time to move on."
