Got an email from Amazon this morning saying they had a ship date for my order of the newest 10 actuals book: MAY 19-JUNE 17!!!!

Ummmm what? Canceled order. Will be buying tests individually. There goes an extra $50

And now amazon says it can deliver by April 28 if I buy now. Just did. Wtf? I wouldn't have canceled if I knew this, amazon!

Don't picquote brehs.
This is a good habit to learn now. We won't have time to teach y'all the protocol when it's waiting thread time.

what? I don't understand your premises and am confused as to your conclusion

[rebexness]

It means that they shouldn't quote your pic link, because then even if you delete it, the link will show up in their post.

[alexrodriguez]

why does it matter?

yes, it was mailed to me.

[rebexness]

I mean it doesn't, if you're cool with your pic/name/test center being preserved forever.

Idunno .. I seem fine with Leigh9190210 putting her picture up on here : )

There goes all TLS courtesy for this thread ?

[rebexness]

People won't post pics if you quote them.
And by people, I mean me.

[BillPackets]

I mean unless Louie had someone else take a pic with his LSAT admission ticket, this is an outage for the ages.

I'm going to delay until September, btw. For some reason, I feel like I need to let you guys know.

[dardardelight]

Thanks for letting us know.. are you sure? The experience of you taking a June LSAT in the real-test setting might boost your confidence in September. It's always good to have the back-up test just in case, and if you plan to apply as early as possible a June/September 2014 LSAT combo might be better than September/ October 2014 .

Still though, you know yourself and what you're comfortable with. All I'm gonna say is everybody naturally second guesses themselves at some point during his/her path to greatness (170+) Make sure this is what you really want. Good luck, and I'll be rooting for you whenever you do decide to take the test!

[alexrodriguez]

I don't see why you don't just take it... and then cancel depending on how you felt.

Sit/cancel uses one of your 3 takes. It's a smart move.

I think there's more harm to take when you aren't 100% confident that you'll hit at least 170 on a bad day. It could destroy your confidence.

You know when you're ready for the LSAT. If ya ain't ready, ya ain't ready.

Yea I'm sure. While I could go into June and score decently, I don't want decent. I want stellar. I want a 172+. With everyday that goes by, I get more and more aware of three things: (1) this test is hard. It is not something that you can rush successfully. I wish I could study for 7 hours a day - and sometimes I do - but it is just getting harder and harder. (2) debt is scary. I am getting progressively terrified of debt. Not only of debt, but of having bad job prospects. In addition, I have realized that simply GETTING IN to a T14 may not be sufficient to my goals. With my GPA, even a 167 will get me a few T14s. However, do I want to be FORCED to go into big law? I don't want to be forced to do anything. I want to graduate knowing that my debt is serviceable in a variety of ways. (3) sitting out a cycle, if absolutely need be (it probably won't) is not a scary proposition. I already have my plan for next year and I just want to build a career. This is not something that needs to be rushed and having two whole years of work experience before matriculating will ONLY help me.

The LSAT can keep me out of opportunities but it can also land me opportunities. I want to be on the better end of that. I just don't want to walk into that testing center thinking, "well i HOPE this is one of those good days." I want to go in there thinking "This will go just like the rest of them and I'm not nervous at all."

TLS has seriously changed my life. I would be going to a TTT if it wasn't for you guys. On the other hand, you guys have made my standards too high

EDIT: and your totally right ^. What if I were to take it - freak out because I'm not ready - and score WAY below my potential. It happens ALL the time around here. Imagine how much pressure THAT would put on me. At least by delaying I can be sure that I'm unsure of how I'd do in a testing situation. There is a little bit of comfort in that as I wouldn't be coming from behind.

I see you WaltGrace -- Good Luck! Just make sure to give it your all during the next time around.. which I'm sure you'll do.

Plus there could be nothing sweeter than copping a 172 with a 3.9x GPA. Have you looked at LSN profiles with those numbers?

They makin it rain.
