I'm back Hi, Rigo! You're still my fav

Weeeee! Thank you darling. Enjoy your time in the real world?

Not really. I prefer TLS considering I'm constantly thinking about law school and the LSAT anyway, I might as well spend my time with people who understand the struggle.

I feel you. I'd rather just get my score so I can tell people IRL "oh yeah I did awesome" or pivot and be like "I'm going to get more work experience before law school." I don't like talking about the score with real life people because they don't get that so much rides on the score. They think the LSAT is pass/fail of something. "Oh you definitely passed, [rigo]!"

I'm looking forward to getting my score so I can actually get a solid plan in place for what I'm doing.

I agree 100%. I have noticed myself becoming more antisocial in the past year or so because I hate when people ask me so many questions about my life plans. I seriously underperformed in September so I'm really anxious to see how I did in Dec. This is my 3rd take so this is my last chance and I'm feeling exactly as you did. I ran out of time on LG which rarely ever happens to me considering it is my best section. I also found the last two passages on RC to be very difficult.

I think I'm not going to go to law school next year even if I get a good score, so I guess I've already made my decision. Nevertheless, I'm still waiting.

We shalllll seeeeee.

Is that because you got the job you were applying for?!

Yeah. I don't have it yet, but I think the fact that I'm not super hungry for law school right now is telling. Even if I don't get the job, I think it will be much better to retake (even if just for more money) and apply first thing next cycle.
Definitely a lot for me to figure out. I wish I had more clarity, but I'm getting there.

If you don't feel pressured to enroll right away, I would definitely recommend using up all of your takes. Even if you just get lucky and happen to gain a few extra points on your third try, it's definitely worth it. If Dec was your first take, you might as well take June and Sept/Oct next year. You're destined for Yale, Rigo... or at least Harvard

I don't know why everyone is as stressed as they are about this. I'm stressed, don't get me wrong, but it's hardly keeping me up at night. The way I see it is Ill get in some places Ill be happy going, and I'm not an idiot and have a half decent work ethic so Ill do just fine.

If anything Im pissed I didnt bust my ass like I did for this last test a few months back. Cramming got me a 158 (and into my safeties), I expect at least a 10 point improvement, which means I really half assed it last time. What pisses me off more is I got my PTs into the low 170s consistently, but the LGs on this december test may have slapped me, which would mean that my score is generally unrepresentative of my abilities. This is it though.

Also to those of you doing that crazy K-JD stuff... take a chill pill. If you need another year, take it. The time I took in the middle of my college education was a much needed break, even if it was overseas in less than paradise conditions. I have no idea how you keep from going crazy doing it one shot all the way through.

There's no room for your reason and rationality on here, Mike

Retakes kinda matter for Yale and Stanford according to their admissions staff.

I miss the days when we were just a bunch of tools quoting each other and saying...

I've heard Berkeley isn't that into retakers either.
Who knows what happens behind closed doors at the three black box schools though.

I feel like they say a lot of things but when it comes down to the numbers they're probably going to do whatever is in their best interest.

If you are a serious contender for Harvard... why worry? You're in a position to excel regardless.
