How do you receive your LSAT Scores?

So I'm going to be writing the October LSAT, and from what I've been reading scores are generally released 3 weeks after you write the LSAT on the LSAC website. I've also heard that they can be mailed to you in 4 weeks.

My question is how do the scores look like when you login to see them, is it a simple number out of 180, without showing what you got on each section, or something different?

Also I'm a bit worried that I won't be able to apply to schools if I receive scores in November, as that's close to the deadlines for most Canadian schools.

On your LSAC account, you see the date, place, and total score. You can also view a detailed score report and PDF of your writing sample. For February or overseas test takers, the latter is unavailable.

I received an email when my score was available to view.

This was all back in 2012, btw, so things might be different now, but I don't think so.

As @bstew2002 said, you get an email which usually shows you your score right away. You can log onto your LSAC account for further details.
