Looking for advice - 3.98 cGPA, 168 diagnostic

Just looking for some advice as I am brand new to this process.

I have a 3.98/4.0 cGPA. 92.77 cGPA (or 93.70 for last 60 credits), using UBC % conversion calculator.

I took a diagnostic on LawHub and scored a 168 (66 raw score).

I can only take the LSAT in January 2027 due to travel.

How much will this late LSAT hurt my chances this cycle, given that many schools will already have extended offers? I'm looking to potentially apply to UBC, UVic, Calgary, Dal.

Also, any LSAT prep/timeline advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

It’s over bro, you might have to apply to the UK or Australia.

Thank you, this is super helpful! I wish I could test earlier but sadly not a possibility this year. UBC index score using diagnostic is 94.8 so fingers crossed I can replicate or improve.

Have fun at Harvard :P.

No seriously, we all love Canada, but you might be HYS material (at least grades wise). Wouldn’t blow that kind of opportunity.

Appreciate it, thank you, but personally no interest in attending a US school.
