February 2014 Waiters
Please double-check all of your posts and edit as necessary to ensure you are not violating any of the below rules. Getting banned is lamezorz. These rules are MUCH MORE GENERAL than you might think is intuitive -- so read carefully.
TLS Moderators wrote:
This is a warning. This is likely your only warning; you are unlikely to receive any further warnings.
Please be advised that discussion or solicitation (including, but not limited to, PMs and online chatrooms) of any questions or answers from the February 2014 LSAT with anything more than an extremely broad level of specificity will result in a temporary or permanent ban. This may include a permanent ban on your IPs if necessary, which will block you from even viewing the TLS forums. Permanent IP address bans for LSAT discussion have been issued in the past.
Examples have been included for your reference below. This is not an exhaustive list. It is not a defense to say that your overly-specific discussion of an LSAT question did not exactly mirror one of the examples - you will still be banned. Linking to other online materials/discussion of the LSAT questions is also prohibited.
Please note that you agreed not to discuss specific LSAT questions and answers when you completed your signing statement when taking the test. The LSAC considers it a violation to discuss specific questions and answers; the LSAC will act accordingly upon discovering discussion of specific questions and answers. Be advised that the LSAC and its agents monitor this board.

1. Games were hard. Okay.
2. Yeah, on the second question for the second game, I wasn't sure if C was just on Tuesdays or Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Ban.
3. No, the order is ACDBBE. Ban.
4. What about Question Four? If C can't go on Tuesdays, then it has to be Wednesday right? Ban.
5. You guys are stupid. The answer to Question Four and Five is D. Ban.
6. No, the answers are CDAABE. Ban.
7. C'mon guys. How can you not know all of the answers? Ban.
Logical Reasoning Example wrote:
1. I thought the LR sections weren't too difficult. Okay.
2. What answers did you all get for the coffee growers question? Ban.
3. I got A. Ban.
4. That's weird, I thought it was either B or D. Ban.
5. But it was a parallel reasoning problem. Ban.
6. Damn it, I knew I should have picked B. Ban.
7. Hold on guys, I think the mods might get upset if we keep this up. Never a good sign.
8. Let's trick them by disguising what we're saying. So, hypothetically, if I were a coffee grower..... Ban.
9. You would be displeased with government regulation of pesticides. Ban.
10. But not price controls. Ban.
11. Is that because, hypothetically, price controls would raise prices and revenue? Ban.
12. It's just a cost problem in general. If you were a coffee grower, the legal pesticides would, hypothetically, cost more. Ban.
13. Whoa, it's just like Question 13 from the second LR section in PT 39. Ban.
14. Guys, maybe we should create a chatroom to discuss this. I started one: tinychat.com/letscheatontheLSAT Ban.
15. If you guys could PM me about this, that'd be great. Ban.
Please note that this warning applies to the Reading Comprehension section as well as the writing sample.
If you are in doubt as to whether your drafted post will run afoul of this warning, do not submit the post. You have been warned.

In! Of course
Also, you should add to the OP the rules about posting LSAT questions http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 6&t=119285

Good luck waiters! Just wanted to re-share this link to Spivey's blog post from back in October: http://spiveyconsulting.com/blog/oct-5t ... conquered/
I printed it out and read it before going into the Oct. 2013 test, and it calmed me the hell down. Hope it helps someone here, too!

That's my hunch too. Interesting that some schools have their app. deadlines on 03/03, which otherwise seems like a really random date.james.bungles wrote:Score release is scheduled for the 5th, so we'll probably get it on the 3rd is what I'm guessing (28th if we're very lucky).

In.
If you have already applied for schools, do they get the scores before we do, or is it one big release?
