[LSATDecimator]

Can we not at least agree that the LSAT is a barbaric system of evaluation? They charge you a bunch of money just to take the test, not even counting the prep materials and or classes, make you write it in an extremely rushed timeframe in usually less than comfortable conditions(person next to you coughing constantly, blowing their nose, ect), make you answer a bunch of questions that many even law professors think are laughably irrelevant to the study of law, and then just to top it all off LSAC makes you wait what I consider to be an unreasonable ammount of time for your results. I've taken tests in University that had more questions and in bigger classes where they had scranton sheet results done by the end of the same day. I'm usually pretty patient but they are really getting under my skin waiting this long to release the scores.

I recently enjoyed taking the New GRE, most of all because they spit out your scores within seconds of completing the test....

LSAC, can you say "Technology?"

Where the fuck is my score?

[jigglebottom]

When you find out on TLS that scores are in, which of the following will you do?

a.) After several thuds of the heart you rush to your LSAC account to see your score immediately, punctuating weeks of anticipation with sudden elation or pure misery.

b.) You take a few moments to reflect on the months of studying--months of assumptions and conditional reasoning--those days of anguish when you were so close to a personal best on a PT. After reflection, you casually click over to LSAC and face destiny as an extension of your efforts and capability.

c.) Cry and say, "I CAN'T DO IT" Call LSAC to check if its too late to cancel your score.

d.) Make someone else check it for you.

e.) Fill in response

Yeah. Today is beautiful though.

Gotta take what you can get.

I didn't know there were so many Coloradans here!! I'm jealous of the winter you guys are having this year! (I'm from CO but go to school in MA)

I'd fill in response
A, hands down.

Apples was real

Ok maybe I've been living under a rock but how can anyone [not an lsac insider] know with any degree of certainty which section was experimental? Care to enlighten me?

Because people who only had 2 LR tell us which one they didnt have.

makes sense. lsac not giving me my score on the other hand DOES NOT!

[BarcaCrossesTheAlps]

OP should redo the poll for test release times.... it's like gambling without losing anything.

Anyone here think we get our scores before 3pm et?

Yea I took the GMAT last year and it's so nice to get your score back as soon as your finish.

Everyone is issued the same 4 section test, and 1 experimental section that varies. I had two LR sections, so If someone with 3 LR sections (one experimental) shared a question in common with me, that means the question was derived from a real section.

Everyone gets the same real sections, and a varied experimental, so as long as we communicate, you can always find out which is the experimental. I only had 1 games section and 2 LRs, my experimental was RC. Because I only had one games section, and we all take the same real sections, anyone who had two LG would only need to know which questions I had to know which one was real. In my case asking anyone who had only one RC section would show which was my real, and which wasn't.

Also, I made a pretty good list of all the real things somewhere around page 5-7
