Your goal is 170+. I wouldn't sit for the LSAT unless your most 5 PTs are in the 70-80s with scores 170+. Given that you likely won't be able to do that by the September exam, I suggest you apply after you've taken the November exam and raised your …
Congrats! Genuinely happy for you. You definitely earned it.
Edit: woah, so you're the guy with the flair (if you know what I mean). all this time I hadn't realized
Many people thought PT 84 had a hard RC, but I don't think it asked anything new. Just harder maybe. I wouldn't worry about it. Also, sometimes you just have a bad PT day.
Sat the June 2018 exam - scored much lower than my PT avg.

I agree that you should back off on the PTs. I was doing 3 or 4 PTs a week leading up to my first attempt, averaging 174, and scored a 165 on the real thing.

I would really only say 2 PTs max, but ideally just 1. All that taking full PTs really does is help you get used to the timing of the test, build stamina, and gauge your progress. BRing them helps learning, but that can also …

I had to do at least 20 sections before I hit my first -2 on a fresh section. Everyone is different though and you're making great progress! Just keep hammering away...

Yes, please. I too need some motivation while studying for the June exam.
Anyway, there are splitters on r/lawschooladmissions with acceptances at several T14, including UVA, Penn, Mich. Just off the top of my head.
With your LSAT, you'll probably…
You have a great shot at the T14 with such a high GPA and that LSAT score. Also, taking another "gap year" won't hurt you at all; in fact, it might even boost your chances as it gives your more work experience (which is what you should look at those…

Just FYI I had a friend who had a 2.9 uGPA, studied hard, got a 177 on the LSAT, then got admitted to nearly every T-14 school (including Harvard!). He ended up going to UVA on a full ride.
You can do it!
Was he URM …

Moving beyond the philosophical arguments, let's take a pragmatic approach:
Yes, you will have to perform well, and better than URMs. You probably can't bank on getting anything lower than the median GPA/LSAT for a …
