  • On my resume with the education section, I added "High school dual-enrollment student, non-degree seeking" for each school I dual-enrolled at in high school. I also didn't add a GPA for any of those schools (I'm honestly not sure what they were at t…
  • @uhinberg Well, exactly. I don't know what is has to do with character either, but it's still part of the Character and Fitness part of the applications. The "why" is a moot point. I just need to know how to respond. I really just want to know if …
  • @TheMikey Thank you for the response! I don't think I the question pertains to me, but I'll shoot an email out to an admission counselor to double check. I was really hoping someone on the forum might have an easy answer so I could avoid asking a sc…
  • @ArtVandelay I received an email with a very similar response. The email did tell me that if we do decide to go for the center change, the deadline is the 11th. It's not a great option. I mean, by Monday if the damage is bad enough to close the test…
  • At this point, I'm not leaving Florida. I live south of Jupiter, and apparently the 7 million of us south of Jupiter have been asked not to leave unless we're in a flood zone. My house is not in a flood zone, has a new roof, and has hurricane window…
  • Hey there, I'm down in Palm Beach county, FL. Right now, I'm living right where it'll touch down, so the damage will be pretty epic; it'll be a direct hit if it stays on its path. Currently deciding with my family if we'll leave or stay. I emailed …
  • @lawschoolhopeful13 thank you! I emailed them as well, but they didn't email me back with any specific information like that. It's what I was hoping they'd say. (Seriously - if they just "let us" take the December exam free of charge I will not be h…
  • I'm pretty sure taking the GRE is just a racket to get more applicants and thereby boost rankings. I had to take the GRE for my last master's degree (including the subject test), and it's a pretty ridiculous test. I remember from my prep for the GRE…
  • @achen013 Thanks for the response! I just ordered the LSAT Trainer, so I can get working through that. I scored a 156 in June, but the PTs the month before the exam I was in the low 160s. I'm disappointed in my score, but not discouraged. I still ma…
  • @"Alex Divine" Thank you for the response! I'm still researching all the schools I'm looking at, but the links and info you attached are actually really helpful. I haven't actually discovered the them on my own, so I'll be devouring them over the ne…
  • These have been interesting comments to read through. As a fellow 156 scorer (yes, I'm retaking in September. My diagnostic scores leading up to the exam were decently higher so), I feel the need to weigh in on the conversation. First, I believe th…
  • @smseraj3 when you look at the grade report form, it tells you what you answered as compared to the actual answer. It's annoying, but you can see there. What's really pissing me off is that not only was the curve steep, but it was one of those ones …
  • Study group for all of us poor souls retaking?
  • Just got it. Time to retake. Ugh
  • So, if I still don't have a score tomorrow, does anybody know of a number to call at LSAC? I'm dying here
  • They could just load the scores to their webpage like the MCAT does, or the GRE. But whatever. They can torture us more this way.
  • Still waiting. Ugh
  • GREY!!!! I'm so so so so happy!!!
  • GREY DAY!!!!!!!!!!
  • It's only come out late once. And that was because of Hurricane Sandy (LSAC was closed for three days). Chances are, it'll be today or tomorrow. I doubt it will be late, though.
  • I keep on thinking today is the official day, and that the scores would be released at 9am. I don't know where/why I got that in my head, but there you go. It says on the LSAC website they're closed today and tomorrow for the holiday. So I seriously…
  • It's terrible waiting! I keep checking my email for the score, get paranoid the email went to a spam folder, and then just keep logging on to the LSAC website to see. The struggle is real
  • @"Alex Divine" thanks for the input! When I started studying for the LSAT, I didn't think I was abnormally old for it. But then when I took it, I was surrounded by a bunch of 19 year olds and suddenly I felt ancient. I'll keep that as part of my PS …
  • @johninsask I totally get what you mean. This Saturday, I didn't have to do a practice test or go into work. It was very strange

  • Time has COMPLETELY come to a halt without studying to keep me busy. One day feels like a month. Yesterday I thought three weeks must've past and the scores would be ready. Then I realized it had only been three days since the LSAT.

  • The night before the LSAT (so Sunday night) I dreamed the LSAT was completely based on My Cousin Vinny. The RC passages were all about finding the murder weapon (the gun) and the getaway car (a mint-green Pontiac tempest), and I had to take the LSAT…
  • I only had one LG section, and found it surprisingly easy. But now I'm paranoid I only thought they were easy because I missed some huge inference, and I really bombed the section. Overall, I have no idea how I did. Maybe I scored my highest, or may…
  • Lucky socks, shoes I can easily slip on/off (I hate taking tests with shoes on. Whatever.) lucky necklace, workout top and zip-up sweater with no hood. I'm learning towards wearing leggings because of the comfort factor, but think maybe wearing Luck…
  • This Sunday I'm watching My Cousin Vinny after I get home from work. No studying in Sunday at all for me. The mental break is an absolute must. But I'm planning on two more practice tests before test day. I've noticed I'm getting sloppy on concepts …
