I took the LSAT 3 years ago as a junior in college, I did not take the test very seriously - tookt he exam cold, didn't really prepare at all. This was not a smart idea, I scored a 155. I just took the October 2006 test to try and improve my score and walked out not feeling confident at all. I am looking for advice regarding canceling my score and retaking in December 2006. Will this adversly effect my chances of admission? Please let me know.
Thanks.

I don't think you should cancel your score; you should still retake it in December if you didn't feel that great, but you can look at the score report to see what areas you need improvement on.

For me, I usually feel bad after tests but do well (I got a 167 on the LSAT). Because the ABA changed law school reporting requirements of multiple scores (the high score rather than the average of the scores), many schools have changed their standards as well and will only look at the high score. So if you wait and get your score, don't like it, and retake the test, you won't be any worse off. The benefit is that you may not have to retake the test.
