Yes, let's hope for the best.

That's all you can do!

Please let it be Monday... My husband will be out of town Tues and it would make me very sad no matter what I score for him to not be with me after all of his support throughout my journey:)

TheLoftGuy

I still say it's going to be today!

africannarp

I heard the website was down this morning

melloish

@africannarp

It was down for me from 2-4 a.m.

kmarie7

Does it being down usually mean anything?

I wouldn't look too deeply into it lol

Cant Get Right

Nope. Not gray.

Don't stay up all night checking LSAC!

TheLoftGuy

That means they were updating the system with our scores. Now it's just a punch of a button. It's still early!

Cant Get Right

Unless LSAC is abandoning all precedent, today is not the day.

TheLoftGuy

Just being silly because today is my birthday and that would be an awesome gift. What is your prediction?

Sprinkles

Lol let the man live

notwilliamwallace

I'd say Monday, ranging from a little before noon to a little after noon.

Cant Get Right

Ah, happy birthday! I went to elementary school with two really close friends who's birthdays are today. Scores could be any day now. We're definitely within the timeframe. It's been 20 days, and it looks like 23 days is the recent average, so I think the odds, though perhaps arbitrary, say Tuesday is most likely. It has ranged from 19 - 30 days though, so who knows.

@TheLoftGuy Happy Birthday!

TheLoftGuy

Idk how to work the quote feature on my iPhone lol but thank you all for the birthday wishes. If scores have been released on the weekend before I'm still saying today or tomorrow LOL

Kateryna

@TheLoftGuy happy birthday!

my gut tells me tomorrow, which is strange, considering the fact that before today i was feeling like monday

twssmith

I have always thought Tues, but now thinking Monday for no reason...

notwilliamwallace

Some dude on reddit is saying that he got his score and that they are coming out tonight. If he is joking, it is a dirty dirty joke...ugh!!

@notwilliamwallace he is just being a troll

Sprinkles

Definitely a troll, @notwilliamwallace. If your account isn't showing up gray it isn't the day.

Yeah that's not cool at all. But the comments that people have left on his status are hilarious.
Just reading it made me log in to my account. I did noticed that there are several attachments ( writing sample) listed but not active links yet. So that has to mean that its happening SOON.

yimei

@theloftguy Do you think it will be today?

Ron Swanson

I'm sticking with tomorrow, no way LSAC would work on a Sunday to do us a favor like that

Kateryna

tomorrow probably

I don't think that they'll come out on Sunday. But I am expecting them to drop tomorrow.

I know! hahaha, I love the people of reddit.

Yup, same. If not Monday, Tuesday for sure.

speedwagon

Me on the outside today trying to have fun and act like I'm not obsessing:


Me on the inside:

TheLoftGuy

@speedwagon exactly lol I will be accepted into law school the end of the month. Can make the announcement at thanksgiving

Rachel Yoon

Today?!?!?! seriously, this is not good for my heart lol

Matthew524

Still Green =(

TheLoftGuy

Ok. Please explain to me where the name "Grey Day" came from and exactly what it means? Today has to be the day...

legal_name

What are the chances of it still being today? Is there a consistent "start" time they've released scores at in the past?

danielznelson

Icons regarding your take and it's score will go from green to grey, indicating your scores are about to be released. In the past, people have proclaimed the day by stating they've "gone grey."

It is also a very fitting name aside from the very literal meaning, haha.

@TheLoftGuy

Scores are typically released at the end of business hours, though there have been some exceptions.

@legal_name

legal_name

Many thanks @danielznelson

TheLoftGuy

@danielznelson LOL now it all makes sense. But you mean to tell me they make us what the whole day before they're released. In my head I expected to wake up to a nice email saying your score is 161 and your in the 8 percentile LOL

danielznelson

I believe accounts turn grey in the afternoon with scores being released from then on out. You may have to wait a while before you actually get yours. I doubt LSAC will notify when accounts turn grey, just when your actual score is released.

Sprinkles

@TheLoftGuy

your score is 161 and your in the 8 percentile LOL

HAHAHAHA I DIED. Naaaah I highly doubt you're in the 8th percentile bud.

Sprinkles

And yea what Daniel said. LSAC doesn't email you just to say your score will be released today, they just email the score and the timing varies for everyone. My first take I got mine really early in the day and the second time around I received my score at 6pm EST

TheLoftGuy

@montaha.rizeq but u use to think I was smart! Lol


@danielznelson well it's almost afternoon on the east coast LOL

I had a dream where I got 171 and I told everyone about it. I even ate butter chicken in the dream to celebrate. Then I woke up and realized none of it was true, then became sad...to be honest, I was more sad about not eating the butter chicken then about the score :P

Sprinkles

@TheLoftGuy I do! The 8th percentile means you scored around a 135 lol :P

Sprinkles

@notwilliamwallace omg stop. I can't crave butter chicken at 11 in the morning lol

TheLoftGuy

@montaha.rizeq Oh MF shhh no. I thought the lower the percentile the higher the score. You know like when you graduate with honors they say you were in the top 5%. Omg I must go pray NOW 8th percentile

TheLoftGuy

@notwilliamwallace now that's a lovely score to dream about. Well since you've already told everybody (in the dream) you can renig LOL

Ah, I should have taken today off, or called in sick, or called in Grey Day...pretending to work when all I am doing is refreshing the LSAC website is tougher than I thought.

Sprinkles

@TheLoftGuy nope it technically means you scored better than the percentage of your score. So if you really got a 135 it means you scored better than 8 percent of the LSAT takers, whereas a 180 has a 99th percentile meaning you scored better than 99 percent of the LSAT takers

danielznelson

In light of history, I don't think anyone will turn grey until at least the early afternoon. Of course, I can't recommend you to or check anyway, since I'm admittedly doing the same thing myself.

Makes sense so with that being confirmed I would like to amend my original statement to 88 percentile. I still believe that I scored somewhere around 161. Confident with that. So do people post screenshots of their score or just write it out. LOL
