The Waiting Game

dodo.podo

Ok, there has to be a better (more merciful) way for LSAC to release the scores. This is what I mean:
1) It takes more than three weeks to receive your score. Seriously? I know it's a paper-based exam, but come on!
2) Inconsistency. Release dates vary from year to year. It looks like we can expect scores to be released 1-3 business days before the official release date, but there've been cases when scores have been released on the official release date. How helpful is that when you reload your email/LSAC account every 5 minutes?
3) More inconsistency. Score notifications are released in batches. So that means if you hear your friend has received their score already, you can expect to receive yours on the same day (?). There is no inherent order to the release of scores, so go figure if it's going to hit you first thing in the morning or right as you were about to drift into another blissfully clueless LSAT-score-less night.
Anyway. Just some random thoughts as I'm waiting for LSAC to show some mercy. Anyone else want to share their anxieties, fears, hopes as we approach the big moment? I'm pretty sure I will have to retake, but I'm hoping for a score that won't depress me too much.

I have had that "sick" stomach feeling all weekend. My productivity at work is also near an all-time low. At this point - LSAC - Just send me the score. I am not even concerned about the number. I just want this all over.

I'm waiting for my f5 key to quit working. This was my first time taking it, and I think the waiting has been the most difficult part.

I’ve taken it twice and haven’t figured out any way to improve the waiting. Its a miserable time. It will pass though, haha. I guess the best thing to do is just stop checking for it. You’ll get an email when it’s posted, and presumably you have some kind of notification for emails on your phone. When the email comes, check your score. Until then, just don’t even look.

Yeah the email has your score and coincides pretty closely with posting on LSAC so there is little reason to do the latter. Just set your email to fetch and push and then go about your daily life knowing you'll be alerted the minute it comes in.

Yeah, I think I just need to keep myself busy. And I will most likely need to retake, so I better get used to being patient.

I'm in the same boat!

I was hoping there were going to be a couple of new Sages - I know some that are more than worthy!

@runiggyrun Hopefully there is a huge party somewhere in cyberspace for all of the new Sages!!
