December LSAT scores available only on February 2018

Going nuts

Hi everyone,
I logged into the LSAC's website to change my test center and came across the notice that the December 2017 LSAT scores will not be available until February 2018. I was planning to complete my applications by the end of November/beginning of December but I am worried that I might be at a disadvantage to get into some law schools. Is anyone planning on taking the December LSAT as well? Should I just take the test this year and apply in September of 2018 instead?

The score release date is January 4, 2018.

If LSAC suddenly changes this date to February, I am almost certain that there will be class action lawsuits.

Could you change the title of the post? The title almost gave me heart attack.

December 2017 LSAT scores will not be available until after February 2018 LSAT registration deadlines have passed. Therefore, if you think you may want to take the February 2018 test, you must register for it before you know your December 2017 score.

Translation: "The February 2018 LSAT registration deadline, which is on December 27, 2017, is before you receive the December 2017 LSAT scores (January 4, 2018). So you have to make a decision to register for February before you see the December score!"
