It’s almost time! We’re inching closer to gray day. Since this is my 2nd time around and, luckily, I’m happy with my first score, I’m having so much less anxiety waiting. But for those of you who are about to lose your minds: deep breaths. Most people feel like that. And no matter what happens with your score, remember that you can always Re-take. There’s plenty of time before next cycle still. So just try to keep yourself busy to keep from thinking about it, and try to keep things in perspective, no matter how it shakes out. Your 7sage crew will be here for you, whether to celebrate or commiserate. You got this!
I was pretty much fine until last night when I had my first memorable LSAT-related nightmare.
I dreamt that I went to my LSAC page to see if it was gray day yet, but my score was already there! A bold 149. My diagnostic was a 147. My dream self was absolutely heartbroken that all I got was two points after having studied for over a year and maintained a far higher PT average.
When I opened the response sheet, I saw that I got a 120 in one of the sections (I think it was RC), which isn't possible because, well, we all know that sections aren't graded on a 180 scale. There was another page that had my bubble sheet scanned in (idk how this differed from the response sheet, lol), and I had a question where I bubbled two ACs, so I didn't even get points for the question.
I think the shock of it all woke me up and it took me a few solid seconds to convince myself that it wasn't real.

I can't wait for this wait to be over.
I had a dream this morning that it was the 29th. Didn't actually get to see my score though. Shit is getting to me.

DUDE. I HAD THE SAME DREAM. WERE YOU IN MY ASTRAL DREAMSCAPE
Okay I literally just got an email from LSAC about the Khan Academy materials. Look LSAC, I love that you are giving free LSAT prep- fantastic- but you are doing a number on my heart rate.
@AudaciousRed Typically LSAC begins releasing scores at about 4:30 pm ET. The expected release time for tomorrow has been a matter of debate, though, because of a few weird release times lately. I’m personally thinking it’ll release around 12:00 pm ET, but we will see.
Yeah, I have to retake, too. Didn't bomb exactly but did a couple points worse than my average. Ugh I need to figure out how to get my LR down some more. -_-
Wow, totally dazed and confused. Diagnostic was 152, score just came in at 148. This whole experience has been such an interesting one, a test of my commitment to myself and my future, and I am proud I even did it. I’ve loved the community and sense of humor in this group and from JY. I think 7Sage is incredible! So thank you all!!!
I’m a first-timer and 42 years-old so there’s enough distance from standardized test taking that I really thought that was why I walked out of the test thinking I’d bombed. And again, as a first-timer, I have nothing to compare this to, but that the language of that test was obnoxiously different than anything I’d ever seen on the preps. I had real RC first. The questions were written so strangely! Obviously I won’t get into specifics. Strange is the only way to put it. Logic games, well we all know the real one had one in particular that was quite difficult but also had a strangeness to it. And LR, equally weird.
That’s my conclusion! My experience was that LSAC hired a bunch of writers who were aiming to leave me utterly bewildered about the efficacy of standardized tests.
100% glad the wait is over. My score came in at 1:45 am, btw.
Update! I just went through the results and can leave you with this as well: RC, which was a strength for me, was most definitely what I bombed and BIG. I went -4 on some PTs in RC; the big day was -17!!!! I did remarkably better on LR (thanks 7sage!!!) and exactly how I thought I would on LG, nailed some, failed some.
Wack.
got my score back... I got a 152. im going to get serious about studying now. I feel like I was to lacksidasical in my prep. just upgraded to ultimate even though im broke and im getting through all of this content before September. ugh.
Question--is the disclosure book supposed to match up with the IRR?
Under my disclosure book, it says what form I took and then Sec. 2, 3, 4 & 5 (missing section 1). Then when I go to my IRR, it shows Sec. 1, 2, 3 and 5 (missing section 4). Do I just not have enough coffee in my system to understand this?
Edit: I think I got it. Answer is not enough coffee.
Hahaha bombed it too. So weird. Lowest score I’ve gotten since... I don’t know how long. Looks like I am in good company! Man, feels unusual that so many people are all saying their score was way lower than expected. Haven’t gotten to look at the report yet, just the email. I’ll have to go over and see what’s up. My thought coming out of the test was that I did ok, likely more answers correct than in December, but might get killed by the curve. But instead I must have missed way more questions. Anyone see what the curve is? It’ll be a couple hours until I can sit down and take a look at the details.
Well, as is said before, your 7sage fam is here for everyone! And it sounds like a lot of us will be retaking. I wasn’t thinking I’d be likely to retake, but scoring significantly lower than my take in December doesn’t feel like a good look, even if schools will consider my December anyway. But leaves a bad taste in my mouth having my lowest score in ages be my most recent score with LSAC. :-/ So, September here I come!

@akistotle Sorry!
Any guesses on when scores will be released (if they’re released early)?
Yeah but waiting longer is giving me anxiety lol- especially when I am trying to keep my skills honed for July.
3 days to go.
How I feel on the inside:
How I seem from the outside:
This anxiety is so real OMG my brain has stopped working
I just want to knowwww already!!!
My score is at the mercy of the RC section and I'm constantly shuffling through the five stages of grief waiting lol

I got an email from LSAC not lsat related and my heart almost exploded.
Anybody think scores might be out tmr?
I had a dream this morning that it was the 29th. Didn't actually get to see my score though. Shit is getting to me.
DUDE. I HAD THE SAME DREAM. WERE YOU IN MY ASTRAL DREAMSCAPE
Just dropping in to say that I'm also in the stress-dreaming-about-the-lsat club.
ugh
@LSATisJustLikeDarkSouls, I've definitely re-confirmed the date several times over the past few hours. It'll be the 29th in just a bit!
@teamteamvicster, lol! Maybe! The LSAT does weird things to our minds, so I wouldn't rule it out entirely XD
@"Return On Inference" Welcome to the club, lol!
Okay I literally just got an email from LSAC about the Khan Academy materials. Look LSAC, I love that you are giving free LSAT prep- fantastic- but you are doing a number on my heart rate.
LoL. I now know how you feel. Email from them about an LOR coming in just now.
Glad to hear I'm not the only one having dreams about scores.
I dreamt last night that I got a "164.5" lolol because that's a score you can get.....
Sorry if this question was answered already, but were there any "weird" games in the LG section on this test?
Dumb question here... but what time does LSAC generally release results?
@AudaciousRed Typically LSAC begins releasing scores at about 4:30 pm ET. The expected release time for tomorrow has been a matter of debate, though, because of a few weird release times lately. I’m personally thinking it’ll release around 12:00 pm ET, but we will see.
Oh good. I'd prefer not to be an utter mess at work tomorrow. Let's hope it's 4:30pm ET so I can vent appropriately.
@AudaciousRed I was thinking the same thing :'D If I get the email during work, I'm not opening until I leave...
Until curiosity threatens to kill us and we open it anyway?
It is officially Grey Day! Happy holiday everyone. May the curve be ever in your favor.
Just got the email. And... I bombed. Be seeing ya'll at a later testing date. September.. maybe November at this rate.
Yeah my stuff is available on lsac already. No email
Wow. This one was a big disappointment for me. It's looking like November will be the next one for me too, AudaciousRed.
Yeah, I have to retake, too. Didn't bomb exactly but did a couple points worse than my average. Ugh I need to figure out how to get my LR down some more. -_-
GREY GREY GREY. Retake retake retake
Will be retaking
I scored exactly the same on this one as I did my last take on December 2016. Absolutely devastated
I did 5 points worse than my last score. I'll be taking it again this July!
Keep studying and working hard everyone!
Hey do the percentiles seem a little bit off for you guys? Like a lot higher for a lot lower scores?
Oh jk nevermind
That RC destroyed me.
Oof ouch owie
Retaking in September haha
Letsss goooooooo!!!! Went from a 135 to 153!!!!! At least I can finally get into a decent law school!!! IM DONE ?????⚖??????
Scored a couple of points less than my PTs. Taking it again in September.

-1 on LG WHAT. Only possible with 7sage. Thank you!!!
How do we know which ones we missed?
You can see them on your IRR (Item Response Report)!
got my score back... I got a 152. im going to get serious about studying now. I feel like I was to lacksidasical in my prep. just upgraded to ultimate even though im broke and im getting through all of this content before September. ugh.
Man, I'm bummed. I scored 3 points lower than my PT average. July here I come I guess.
