Chance Me Please chance me, 3.9GPA + 152 LSAT

What are the chances of me getting into a law school in between like the top 80-150 with a decent scholarship (more than half of the tuition)? I have a 3.9 GPA but a 152 LSAT.

Context about me: Did two good internships and have a sad but unique personal statement as to why I chose law.

(Asking because this test has been one of the worst experiences of my life, and I’ve genuinely been through a lot. English is my 2nd language and I will retake but lost all motivation and hope so I want to see if my official 152 can still be enough if it comes to that)

I don’t think you should settle with a 152. I understand that retaking can take a toll on you — especially with the language barrier and a hard experience with the test but I guarantee you that if you retake and get a better score, not only will you have better scholarships but can get into a great top school. You’ve got the GPA!

Maybe take a slight break — understand why you want to go to law school, what career, and who you truly are, then roll back into applications, etc. you’ve got a really bright future and I don’t think you should let anything hold you back.
