Feb Waiters: is TODAY the DAY? [New Poll] Forum

[sid.bahl]

honestly I don't even know what I'm going to spend all my time thinking about if I don't have to worry about lsat stuff anymore...maybe I'll go back to actually paying attention in class

YES! Focus on finishing school strong. It would be a shame to put all of this hard work to waste.

Soooooo wish I was still in college...

really? i'm so glad i'm not. i do wish i could go back to frosh year and inform my idiot 18 year old self that the gpa WILL matter at some point. but other than that? nope.

Wish I could do the exact same thing...freshman year 3.3 at community college vs. straight 4.0s at my 4 year institution= adcoms being able to plainly see that I was a lazy freshman

School is so boring at this point. Two middies this week and one next, and I don't care enough. So close to the end of this degree!

I'm only a junior and already feel like this

Thanks sid I will, I've really got to keep my gpa as high as possible to make up for my freshman year, but I am also a perfectionist, as I'm sure plenty of other TLSers are haha

The biggest predictor of my success or failure (well, A/A+ or B+/A-) in a class is whether or not the material is interesting and taught in an engaging way. Boring class? Not going to work hard. Interesting class? I'll be your best student. Surprisingly I'm not motivated to work that hard for a teacher who isn't motivated to work hard for me. I guess that's not the best attitude to have, but my LSAT is going to be good and my "bad" grades are still "good", so I'm not reeeeally worried.

I know exactly what you mean, I'm always far more engaged in classes that are challenging and interesting. Luckily I've found that the boring classes I've taken have also been the easiest. My classes this semester are just not that exciting hence my total mental preoccupation with lsat stuff haha.

It is my philosophy that a class can either be boring or hard. A class that is both boring and hard is just rude.

If the scores don't come tomorrow I'm literally going crazy Tuesday/Wednesday

[ws81086n]

So at least some other people are suffering from the "Oh fuck, I did worse than I thought" syndrome as we get closer?

So much. I keep going over my devastation reactions, in different locations

yup. i was way confident day of/day after. and my predicted score has lost a point about every four days since.

[Tammyb]

if I get a bad score....i'm telling no one (except u guys of course). If they ask, I'll just bark at them or have a public meltdown

barking! yes!

there are certain friends and family members who have been absolute champs dealing with my neurotic obsession with the test. they want me to call them as soon as i find out.

yeah, if the score's bad, that's not happening. they'll probably all just get a sad emoticon text.

[chuckbass]

All of my friends know that if I don't tell them, that I did awful.

my friends are wonderfully cruel and i'm sure they'll still insist on knowing the actual number. ha.

I'm out one whole day and I missed so much on the forum. Seems like it's getting some life near the end.

I keep going back and forth between tomorrow and Tuesday, and for some reason I am leaning towards Tuesday again... IF you look at the most recent February exams, the release date has been exactly one work day before the scheduled release. (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2012). 2010 was an anomaly as it came the Saturday before the release date(Monday). And the only exception to this was 2011 when it came 2 week days before the release date. Might be a 2011 again but just based on the trend, a better bet would be Tuesday, March 5.


And we will all beast it out with amazing scores. Think happy thoughts. Maybe, just maybe, the LSAC Gods will transform your 166 to a 168 or your 172 to a 175.

I'm actually the opposite. Day-of I was worried I'd be in the 160s. My best guess now is a 175, with the range I consider "likely" being roughly 172-178. Unfortunately at this point I have a hard time remembering questions and stuff.

[chuckbass]

You know it's bad when your friends tell you they're getting nervous.

A well hidden troll, simply not true. I know because I suffered through the second longest wait in modern LSAT history last Feb. One day before is not the standard.

ha, I know exactly what you mean. I was PTing very high too (176-180), but I don't think I did nearly as well on the real exam. All of my friends think I'm going to get some ridiculous, superhuman score, when I'll actually be lucky if I break 170...

...and, because i can't sleep, i just checked 2007, 2006, and 2005 - one business day holds. they're often scheduled for release on a monday, though. so. there's that.
