Should I retest?
161 LSAT (just received today), 3.35 uGPA, URM, with 8 years of paralegal experience looking to apply for Fall 2027 cycle. I’ve had major anxiety about the LSAT for years to the point where to avoid the panic attacks, I had to just sign up almost on a whim and not do a complex study regime. I am very happy with 161 since I’m looking to apply to the online/part-time programs at Syracuse, Hawaii, ASU, LMU, and Southwestern while working full time, but now I really want to focus on financial aid. Does anyone have similar stats and have experience with acceptance/financial aid at these schools? I’m sure I could get higher if I actually studied but given where I want to apply, I’m not sure if it’s worth all of the stress that would come with it
