Is it worth my time?

Honestly, in terms of law school admissions, it’s probably better to take easy classes the rest of the time you’re in college. I personally tried to take some easy classes and some interesting difficult classes each semester, that way you don’t feel like a total waste of life, but you aren’t ruining your GPA for the sake of an education. Your numbers are almost identical to mine (3.64, 175). I guess it would be advantageous to wait a year and get your grades as high as possible, but with the numbers you have, you’re probably going to get into almost every school to which you apply, with the exception of HYS, unless you do something horribly wrong on your applications. If you want a break for your mental health, that’s also understandable. Either way, you’re an extremely competitive applicant, so I wouldn’t worry too much.
