Realistic goals and expectations

Application Process

This is my first Reddit post so bear with me. I finally took my diagnostic prep test through 7sage. I gave myself 10 extra minutes on the sections due to my ADHD. My score was a 157, with a blind review 161 (I didn’t realize that blind review included correct answered and changed all of them, so maybe it would’ve been higher idk). I have no experience, nor do I have anyone close enough with experience, to know what expectations I should set myself up for. I plan on applying in September 2026. How much time, prep, and money should I put into my lsat score? Is this score good enough to try and aim for selective schools? My gpa is decent (3.8) but I have nothing on my resume other than that and my food service job work experience 🧍🏻‍♀️I wanna set realistic standards, goals, and expectations but idk where to start.
