just voicing my frustration Forum

[IGotMy170]

LSAC's policies that are illegal with regards to red flagging test scores taken with extra time.

Accept your score, retake or move on. I think the LSAT is a stupid test but your incessant rants are getting ridiculous.

A lot of people could do better with additional time.

I was diagnosed with ADD when I was 12. I took my pills for a while and then decided that you know what, ADD is controllable and just decided to not take any medication. But I want an unfair advantage now. I'm going to sue LSAC that my 171 would have been a 200 if I did not have ADD.

Hi I just want to voice my frustration
I ended up getting a 170 on the Dec 11 LSAT which I am happy about. Obviously I was shooting for higher but I am sooo glad I did not get below 170 that would have been a nightmare. So I am thankful for my score.

Then I looked at the item response sheet and noticed something crazy.
I only missed two on each of the first three sections (LR LG LR) and then missed 8 on RC!!! That is insane!! On all my PTs I never missed that much, 5 was the greatest including all 50 or so PTs I took, and the average missed was 3-4.

It's just a little frustrating because based on my performance on other sections I actually did really well and could have/should have gotten a higher score. But this freak accident of screwing up the RC dropped my score so much! It's hard to explain my frustration but if I consistenly did bad on all the sections then I'd feel like I deserved my score but other than RC I did so well otherwise!

Start a support group, everybody's doing it.

The same-ish thing happened to me, but with LG. Usually ace LG on most PT's but got a -10 on Dec because I panicked. Still pulled off a 165, thank god. -3 on RC, I actually DON'T know how that happened but I'm ok with it!

It happens... it looks like RC was just the hardest section this test

In October I bombed the LG's pretty bad, but did great on the other sections / with the help of a decent curve I scored above my PT scores

But you want more emphasis on GPA and it has already been demonstrated a million times over why more emphasis on GPA would be ridiculous.

The only ridiculous thing is the LSAT. Would GPA emphasis be perfect. No, of course not. The world isn't perfect. It would just be better than the LSAT and make more sense, that's all. Fortunately, LSAC has left themselves vulnerable to take down because they openly flout the law.

Cause people here on TLS are nice. If you post things stupid and idiotic like you have done, then TLS will give you the benefit of the doubt and think you are trolling instead of actually thinking you are really that ridiculous

Found it in another thread:

my slow processing speed is a well documented disability

If this is your disability, is it a good idea to go into a field where it will so greatly inhibit you...? I think it's generally a good idea to play to your strengths

edit: slow processing speed is a disability? In and of itself...?

I would be a good lawyer. It's not just me that thinks this. Ever since I was a child people have told me this. Most notably, some of my fellow jurors told me this after we finished deliberations. I have the mind for it, I love to argue, I feel strongly about justice, I just love law and courts, etc. There's a lot of reasons why this is right for me.

Stupid and idiotic? Hardly.

Philosopher King, why have you not addressed what I said about the LSAT being a test that is very dependent on a timed situation?

The LSAT is USELESS if you have an hour on each section. Do you understand that? Even a dumb person could score very high on the LSAT with that much time. The reason the LSAT is a tough test is because it is pretty difficult to get through the LG and RC sections in the time they give you. That is basically what the LSAT is grading. Your reasoning skills, and more specifically, how quickly and accurately you reason.

To give you a ridiculous amount of time on the test, it is just making the test results entirely worthless to the point of the test. That is a fact, and that is why they inform schools when the test was rendered useless by extended time.

Hey, the law is the law. Obviously LSAC shares your opinion but they must follow the law. Don't like the law? Then tell Congress to repeal it. Until then, your argument need not be a dressed if we are only dealing with the legal issues.

Mtal is known for being a troll, pissing people off, posting annoying and ridiculous shit...and doing so repeatedly. You are doing a very good job of that in about 5 separate threads, hence, people think you are Mtal.

I'm sorry that everybody is giving you a hard time, Philosopher. I hope that justice is served to you in this (and for that matter in every) situation.

I take what you've said to be true, and believe that it can be consistent for one to do poorly on the LSAT when timed traditionally, yet perform paradigmatically as an attorney.

Que Dios te bendiga.

P.S. I laud your tribute to Plato.
