LSAT horror stories / should I retake the LSAT, get VA residency or both?
« on: August 26, 2005, 10:50:51 AM »
Hi everyone,
I would appreciate some opinions on whether I should retake the LSAT.
Score: 166
GPA: 3.8
I'm taking 2-3 years off right now to work in a well-known consulting firm. UVA is my #1 school right now. I'm considering trying to get transfered to the Virginia office next year so that I can establish residency before I apply. I also worked in a law firm last summer with a partner who went to Virginia. He has offered to write me a recommendation letter. I graduated from a well known honors program at a public, top 50 school.
Any opinions on whether I should retake, move or both would be welcome. How much will a combined score of 168-169 and Virginia residency really help me?
Thanks!
