Agonizing over one sentence on my final draft PS. I've rewritten my PS endless times. Now this one sentence...

I completely understand this agony. I've been working on my PS since October. You'd think it would be 110% done by now.

Idc what people say to me, I'm fucking bummed.

20+ point improvement is insane, but still I can understand your sentiment. You'd definitely want to get a consistent scores above 170 prior to test day to best ensure you get at least 170. Not sure how you studied or if you have fresh practice tests to take, but I would take a bit of a break before getting back into it. I don't remember the rules on limits to take the exam, but isn't it three every two years? You may have to hold off for a bit. This forum is great for tips. Let people know how you prepared and there will be a lot of great ideas for how to improve.

You're right, TestSecurity emailed me this morning.

I though in was 3 times within any 2 years meaning (2015-2016), i didnt realize they actually meant the 24 months lmao.

Everything is ready once my PS is done.

I am also done with everything but Why X's. Although I wouldn't mind exchanging or having someone look over my PS for one last time.

Happy to take a look

I failed.

-5 rc
-1 lr1
-1 lr2
-2 on game 4(Ugg..-0 here and I get a 173, which is what I needed)

waited 24 hrs to work up the nerve to check it. I'm not sure I'm going to bother applying anywhere now.

Well, you know better than us what the other aspects of your app look like that could compensate, but regardless, that's a very good score. What schools were you looking to attend?

You know you've spent that at a bar before... just do it.

I'm so frustrated because I'm ready to submit three of mine but I can't until I receive updated grades from my institution.

I feel you, I'm still waiting on 3 freaking grades.

ROUGH. I only don't know 1 of them, because when I frantically emailed my prof wondering when he would be sending them through to the registrar, he was kind enough to tell me my mark. So, no transcript, but at least my mind is at ease

[dontsaywhatyoumean]

God dammit, I am so pissed at myself. I got 3 questions wrong on the first 8 questions of my second LR section, but only got one wrong on the rest in that section.

I "should" have gone -1 on that section. I remember getting flustered after only answering half of the LG questions, which was the section right before this one, and it was difficult to concentrate. Man, this test certainly has a mental component.

I remember thinking to myself that I was doing so well until that LG section, and that I could be done with this test once and for all as long as I don't let myself get worked up about having bombed that section, and that I could and needed to perform well on LR, as it is the section that always buoys my score.

I was able to calm down around question 8 or so (when I started scoring well), so I guess it probably worked, but man, it's still frustrating.

[emilycc1026]

Should I submit the rest of my apps tomorrow or is it worth waiting another week for my pre-law advisor to check it? Idk how much waiting a week will hurt my app.

[dontsaywhatyoumean]

Did anyone else notice that most of the questions they remembered as concerning were not actually the ones that they got wrong?

Applied!

[sethnoorzad]

Going to submit apps to schools where I think I have good chances with my (proud) 3.33 GPA and 163 LSAT. Then a wave of later apps after February retake.
Feeling good about my DS and PS. I tailored my PS today for a specific school (William and Mary). I have everything basically I'm just waiting on a professor to submit her LOR, should be tomorrow.
