Great News: "Everyone Is Losing Interest In Law School"A quick read (and a great site for those interested in solo/boutique practice): <a href="https://lawyerist.com/83758/everyone-is-losing-interest-…
@profile427 there are more factors that will go into this than just your LSAT score. For example if you are a URM then your GPA would give you a shot at most of the T14 even with a 160. But of course, higher is always better! -

@Pacifico
+1 re your assertion about URM status and high gpa. According to LSN, appplicants with a 165 and 3.9 usually get into almost all of the T14. -

@alexandergreene93 - thanks for the pep talk! :) I'm unsure if my undergrad does A+ grades.
@Pacifico - does being a ginger count as URM? We're an endangered species, you know...oh well. Back to studying. -

163 and a 3.81 GPA, debating on a retake---any advice?So I retook the June 2015 LSAT and got a 163. Now this is much better than my first actual test score which was a 153 (did not study in the right way…
Admission with those numbers is not unheard of, but very unlikely especially for a non-URM candidate. Odds are you won't get into any T14 with those numbers, though T20 is a reasonable bet. If you're okay with that, fine. If not, retake. -

Just an added note. Know of at least one person who was admitted to Columbia this past cycle with around a 3.5 but a 170+ LSAT, non-URM.
A high LSAT in general will take you a lot farther than a high GPA/low LSAT. -
