June 2016 - Waiter's (+170 or bust) GRAY DAY HAS AWOKEN FROM ITS SLUMBER Forum

[ponderingmeerkat]

Wasn't there a prediction somewhere that we COULD get our scores even on the 24th?

I heard from the kinds of people who have a history of knowing these things that the 24th isn't going to be a thing.

Just got an email from LSAC saying a hold was placed on my account; apparently I didn't fill out the certifying statement verbatim, so I just have to copy it down again and send it in via post... Severe moment of panic when I got the email though! Doesn't sound like I should have any delay since I'm sending it out today.

Thinking back, I think I just forgot to sign it. I remember making sure sure everything was right with the statement!

My first post as a non-lurker... of course it took something extreme for me to speak up. I too received a similar message today, and I'm so confused by it. I can say with near certainty that I copied the statement verbatim and signed it on test day. I assumed maybe I had missed a filler word or punctuation or something, but when I asked via email today they said "the test center has reported that you provided neither a certifying statement nor a signature". !!!!!!!!! Freaking out because I know that I did. I re-wrote and emailed it right away of course, but I'm just so confused..

Yeah, I'm not one to skimp on instructions, as I assume you aren't either. I was talking to people about it today and I heard many a joke about a lawyer not reading/signing right! Who knows, these things happen. Regardless, I think it'll end up alright for us.

New poll. Good god i love me some new poll.

That one person who votes for a -7 curve and just wants to watch the world burn......................

A good way for the LSAC to generate some additional cash flow from people taking Sept en masse.

Welcome back sir Meerkat. It's been a hot second

Guys, I got a question.

So percentile/and LSAT score. Like, 170 is always near a certain percentile, right?

It can't be that you got a 170 but percentile wise it's crap?

Yea brother. Damn shame too...looks like our pagecount could've used some shitpoasting around here.

How's everyone doing? No full-blown neurotic breakdowns or anything right???

It's always close to the same percentile but it's not going to be exact.

LSAC's been doing this for a while and they've got their curve down so usually a 170 will be nearly the same as the next 170 from a different administration.

It's theoretically possible for a 170 to end up being a crappy percentile but you're literally more likely to get struck by lightning so I wouldn't worry about it.

Nonono, that's the 180 curve

You almost tricked me into convincing myself of a sweet sweet curve.

Eh, it at least kind of confirmed what we knew... That RC was what we perceived as the toughest section. I went for LG because I still felt strong on the other fronts tho

What'd you think of LR? I had an LR as my first section and that is pretty much a blank in memory from the first-section jitters (I remember the 2nd being average to on the easier side).

P.S. we hit the 6 page daily goal already. Once we get to page 180 I'm chugging a Four loko for added good luck.

All good here brother. Dwindling post count but pretty much the same. How's your week been?

Specifics of LR are lost on me, I went LR-LG-LR-LR-RC, so I had a lot to wade through. For overall LR though, I had ample time to finish and even went reviewed/change two answers total (I hope I made the right decision on those...), which is usually a sign for me of a good section. I did have to go back to the political party/mayor problem and diagram it like a game for it to make sense to me, but that was the only one that really stumped me. I had the cocoa/island experimental if that helps.

That's exactly how mine went. I ended up with a few minutes left on the real ones and changed one and I had probably 5 left on the experimental.

Haha. I actually just remembered that the state that I'm in for the summer outlawed those things.. I'll go with some stiff Coronaritas.

A little sporty man. Privert's interim mandate is up. He doesn't want to leave and his party supporters (same party as Aristide had back in 2004) are willing to take to the streets to make sure he stays despite not having any constitutionally approved mandate. So, basically, Haiti standard. But made for a busy week.

Is Four Loko still I thing?? I thought those were outlawed by the pearl clutches like, 5 years ago.

(Outted as old??)

I know you can still buy them around Chicago. But that's the only place that I know for sure.

If you're looking for an excuse for neglecting your shitpoasting duties you're going to have to do a little better than this. It's not even a civil war.

Damn, I haven't had one of those in so long... I know some of the bodegas around me still sell them

The old formula was banned (with caffeine) so they changed it and back on market, it was pretty much never off the shelves completely

Don't ask why I know all this
