Question about retaking LSAT after having already been to law school
Posted on 3/21/17 at 9:30 pm

Any other people out there with any similar experience or advice, much appreciated.
I was a 1L at Loyola in NOLA and dropped out halfway through my first year due to me being stupid, dumb, idioitic, etc. However, I now am ready to begin that chapter of my life again and have a question for the JD's and anyone of the sort.
I graduated LSU with a 3.25, LSAT of 151. Middle of the road stats, nothing to write home about but just enough to do what I wanted.
I don't want to go back to Loyola and was thinking about retaking the LSAT. I feel I'm better prepared at 25 than I was at 21 doing anything involving logic. Do you recommend me taking the LSAT again to bolster my application to try and get into other law schools or just reapply with current credentials and hope for the best?
Thanks for any info!

How long are LSAT scores good for?
I know MCAT scores are only good for 3 and GRE only good for 5
Surely you're gonna have to take it again

Things may have changed since I last took the LSAT 10 years ago but I thought LSAT scores were only good for 3 years
You may HAVE to take it again
You may also have to disclose that you failed out your first go round. Not sure how that works.

Didn't fail out, withdrew because I chased some girl and it ended in flames

That certainly more interesting on an application if they ask

You have to take it again
Spend some money on a class and get a scholarship somewhere decent

Haha definitely not going to put that I promise, I'll have a nice answer to the question when it comes closer

Awesome cool, I kind of want to take it again to test my logic skills now and compare

Where do you want to go? That'll make the difference on whether your 151 will even get noticed or if you'll have to get a higher score
Regardless, if you want to show maturity to an admissions council, you'll more than likely want to get a higher LSAT score than your previous 151

Please reconsider. Law is a dead end.

Not even back in law school but got the lying down pat. You'll do well as a lawyer.

What were you doing in law school at 21?

Anywhere really, I just want to get this phase of my life going again. I'm at the point where I should have graduated yet still haven't completed a full year. But I want to do as best as I can, no baseline score in mind except 151

Took the LSAT senior yearof college.

Good Lord. Take it again and pay for a prep course. 151 is crap.

I'm sure it's higher than you could score, bozo.

Your determination to make the same poor life decision all over again is truly inspiring.
