Also was a splitter this past cycle and my best advice is to apply everywhere and be prepared for an unpreictabke cycle. Get your apps in as early as possible and write the extra essays for everywhere. But like benwyatt and birdlaw both said, good things can definitely happen for splitters so definitely be hopeful!Mr. Meeseeks wrote:That's really good to know.

I don't really think this qualifies as a humblebrag.

So one of the new interns that I met is starting his LSAT prep. I was talking to him about it and just answering any general questions he had about the test itself and how I prepped. He asked if I could show him the basics of a sequencing game if he brought one in sometime next week during the lunch break. I said sure (because I'm a nice person OF COURSE). I don't want to look at anything LSAT related unless I need to retake, but HEY it's for a good cause right..?..?

Does everyone go gray THE MORNING of gray day? I know scores are sent out in waves and that you can get yours early or later. But does everyone go gray that morning or?

Though, to add to the collective anxiety, I believe grey could/has happen(ed) as late as like 4 or 5. So it could be grey day but we wouldn't know it until the late afternoon.pretzeltime wrote:I don't know about early morning but I think around mid-morning/afternoon to go grey generally.TheMikey wrote:Does everyone go gray THE MORNING of gray day?

does it have to be at like 9am? no... gray day can start whenever really, could be walking into work, or just finishing lunch, its part of the mystery

It's time to post here since this waiting has gotten bad.
Last night I dreamed that I got my score, but they'd re-adjusted the scale and now the top score is 575. Oh, and I'd done dreadfully (only in the 370s), and I spent so long trying to convert back to the old scale, but then realized that LSAC had switched my answer sheet with someone else's and they'd lost mine.
I need to it be Monday soon.

I usually check once in the afternoon, just to be sure. I'm just sure I'll see it on here/reddit soon after it happens not to worry about going to LSAC and refreshing every 5 minutes.pretzeltime wrote:Do we even have some ITT who is checking compulsively for grey day?

I have had oddly few LSAT dreams. I do still have naked SAT dreams regardless. And way worse nightmares. But no LSAT dream in which I get a score.
Required questions:
Cake or pie
Tacos or Burgers
Optional:
Drink of choice
