I've put over 6000 hours into this test, it paid off. I'm no sage, but it paid off. I'm happy tonight. I'm really happy. My first take was a 145 back in December 16. I raised my score exponentially with hard work and fool proofing. 7sage works. It really does. This is coming from a high school drop out with a GED. Don't quit, don't ever quit. You've never failed until you quit trying. DO NOT QUIT!
you guys i got my target score. 2 points higher. HOLY SHIT
OMGGGGG GUYSSSSSS
I GOT A 17X!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG I GOT MY SCORE
ARE YOU HAPPY WITH IT????
YES I cannot believe it. I made an 11 point increase by studying w/7sage, I studied for 10 weeks total. I am freaking out here.
I hit my goal, I'm happy. I scored 3 points above my PT average. I'm having an IPA. I'm happy.
I scored five points higher than my December score! I did a crash course of the curriculum starting January and improved that much in 6 weeks! Not advisable but proof that the curriculum works. THANK YOU 7 Sage and the 7 Sage community! I couldn't have done it without you!

Does LSAC hate PowerScore or something?

Maybe going to an animal shelter and having a visit with the animals could have calming effects.
My 7 pound little puppy Autumn has been doing her best. She's an old bear, had her since Nov 2004, today she has done nothing but give kisses. She knows. She's my bear, she's my buddy. I got her for my wife when we got married and she turned out to be my best friend
Two years of study, four takes of the LSAT and finally...170!!! That was my goal and I'm over the moon. Off to send unnecessary updates to the schools where I've applied!
Thank you to everyone telling me congrats! I am really so happy right now. I was hoping for an 8-9 pt increase, but an 11 point has me on cloud 9. I am in the 75th for the schools I want to get into. Now I'm obsessing over LSN!!
the thing is, some of us (myself included) told schools we are applying to (for this upcoming cycle) to wait for the Feb score...so really, there IS no retake. This is it.
I had a dream that scores got released and I got a better score than expected. Then in my dream I told myself "Oh man, I hope this isn't a dream." And then I woke up.
Def didn't think it was stupid easy, for me LR was harder than normal, LG was normal even though I made 2 stupid rookie mistakes on 2 of the games, RC was normal. I still feel like I bombed it though. Ive read JY's "I think I f^#%ed up and want to cancel" thread at least 20 times since the 10th.
Somehow, I managed to fall asleep while waiting for scores last night. I woke up in a panic and grabbed my phone a little after midnight to see the e-mail. I got the score I was looking for and made my girlfriend wake up to celebrate with me while I messaged my family and friends :)
The 7sage core curriculum made a huge difference. I don't think there is a better course for learning LR than the CC.
Well guys i guess i'll share too. Im drunk from celebrating but I scored 2 points higher than my highest EVER practice test on this exam, making me a sage! Congrats to everyone on their scores and efforys :)
@ivettechow129 @jesstasticfool646 Don't let it get you down friends!!! It's a massive gut punch, but I've been there. I took the LSAT 3 times, the first 2 were disappointing and then the 3rd I killed it and it made everything worthwhile. Don't ever give up, be resilient and keep fighting and you can dominate this test.
Well... I just scored 5 points lower than my December score (it was lower than my past 15 PTs actually) :'(
ohh and 7points lower than my very last PT—the WEEK before 2/10. Screw it.
To everyone that scored 170+, I salute you.
To everyone who didn't score as well as they hoped, its okay! you're not alone, and it's not over!
You can still grab life my the Testys!!!
(50% LSAC joke. 50% sac joke)

There is a state of emergency in this area [near LSAC]. Big snow storm is supposedly coming so there’s a strong chance that they will be closed. I hope the employee in charge took the big red “Send Score” button home with them tonight.
Lol, I think there is roughly a 25 percent chance that LSAC's system is literally a single button. They take turns after each administration presiding over the button, and the hopes of thousands rest on the whims of Jeremiah the accountant this time. In December Stacy from HR got drunk and tweeted out that she was going to push the button early. The higher-ups deleted her tweet, but it was too late, they couldn't risk the karmic retribution of interfering with the sovereignty of that month's button pusher. And thus did we rejoice in the streets at the merciful whim of a mysterious organization, shrouded in the mist of archaic rote process.
I feel like I’m going through different stages in this waiting process. Kinda like greif.
I passively accepted the wait time shortly after the test.
Then I was happy about it - didn’t want my score too soon so a potentially bad score wouldn’t interfere with my happy.
Then I just didn’t think i would survive the wait.
Then I was sad because I managed to convinced my self I’d failed.
For the last week I’d been anxious.
Now I’m a mix of anxious and upset. Many reputable entrance exams have rapid turn around times that don’t compromise the integrity or fairness of the exam. This month long wait is archaic & annoying. They need to use another testing company’s model and figure out a way to give us scores in a few days. Maybe we don’t all need to get our scores at the same time. Delayed exam - later score. They can upload the writing samples later. If they remove questions & answers from scoring and our scores change - oh wells - include a disclaimer. A month is insane.
?
So I finally found some peace tonight. It's 11:59 pm, and today I woke up confident that scores would be released today. Tonight I am at peace with the fact that they weren't.
The chardonnay really helped with that.

I DONT KNOW YOU BUT I AM SO PROUD OF YOU
I can’t do it!! I never went to check my score
Just got my score emailed. Deleted the email without checking. I like my safe space of denial.
Nvm I see it! I am curious, when they said "as previously noted" referring to a release date and time as March 7th in the early evening, when and where was that previously noted? I have only seen March 8th as the projected release date.
