Is 155 a Good LSAT Score? Percentile, Law Schools & Retake Strategy

A 155 is above the median LSAT score among test scores in LSAC’s current 2023–2026 percentile table: it sits at the 54.03rd percentile. It can be competitive at many regional law schools, but it is below the median at most highly selective national programs.

What percentile is 155?

54.03rd percentile.

What schools can you get into?

Use each school’s current 25th/50th/75th percentile band. A 155 can be at or above median at some regional schools and below the 25th percentile at more selective schools.

Should you retake?

Often yes if your practice tests consistently sit several points higher. Moving from 155 into the low 160s can materially change both school options and scholarship leverage.

Is 155 bad?

No. It is above roughly half of reported scores, but “good” depends on the schools you would actually attend.

Frequently asked questions

What percentile is 155 LSAT?

54.03rd percentile on LSAC’s current 2023–2026 table.

Can you go to law school with a 155?

Yes. Many ABA-accredited schools enroll students around or below that score.

Should I retake 155?

Retake when recent practice performance supports a meaningful gain and the gain would materially improve your list or aid.
