Haha same. Games killed me. I'm thinking mid-160s (I had been PTing in the low 170s).

Yep, we are grey. Email says today is the day.

Are there any non-21sters waiting for their scores?

I guess that is a Machiavellian way of looking at it.

The weird thing for me anyway is a lot of weird stuff happened to me on this one. The Logic Games, which usually was my worst section, I scored a -2. The Reading Comprehension, I totally pooped the bed with a -16. I have never, in all of the practice tests I've taken, scored lower than a -4 on a RC. I just can't explain what the hell happened

Games also murdered me. I felt extremely confident in my LR sections, but LG = no bueno. TBA, I guess ...

I was also averaging in the low 170s and also completely screwed up the games on this test. The other sections went fine (I think), but I went back to the old TLS threads from when people got their scores in Feb. 2010, and it seems like a LOT of people scored below their expectations. I'm thinking the curve was something harsh, like -9 or -10. Of course, we'll never know. I'm sick with worry right now.

Oh wow. I'm really hoping not. LR did seem much easier than usual, but RC seemed a little more difficult. Or maybe it's just me. RC has always been my worst section. But the Dec 09 test had a -14 curve. I don't want to think the curve changes that much within one administration. I know it's based on the test though, so who knows. Definitely wish I had taken the actual Dec 7 test, especially with the curve the way it is. Oh well. Stupid weather....

I hit 6 consecutive -0 in games and went -4 on the real thing. Super cereal.

Oh well. Good news is now I can stay on TLS now and become a TLS celebrity. What could go wrong?

Vic did you also test on 12/21?

I was a 12/21 taker and I'm still waiting. This is agonizing

The worst part is, it was about 30 degrees with 2 inches of snow when they canceled my session. Meanwhile, it's 30-below in my hometown tonight, and nobody cancels jack there! Un-fucking-believable.

There was absolutely nothing when mine was cancelled. Just rain. Has anyone else had nightmares about mis-bubbling a section and getting like a 150 and not even being able to know what was wrong because it's unreleased? I wasn't going to take a Feb test specifically because I think I might go nuts not knowing what I got wrong. Did I screw up a game? Was LR a disaster? No one knows...

I agree... wish I had taken it on the 7th. Of course, a more "generous" curve supposedly means a more difficult test, so who knows. RC on 12/21 felt pretty standard to me, but that was the section that killed me in October, so I focused a lot of my attention on it leading up to the Dec. test. I agree that LR felt suspiciously easy. I finished with several minutes to spare on both sections, and that NEVER happened on my PTs. I'm hoping I got -4 or -5 on both LRs and RC combined because I seriously think I could've gotten -10 on LG alone. Ugh...

So almost 11 EST....it has to be within the next hour....right? Anyone given up yet?

I have.

I have all my applications done and am currently debating submitting some with my old score if I am currently above the 75th. I don't want to get that far behind in line. Thoughts? Can I update the schools when I do get my score eventually?

I already submitted all my apps with my current score, and I'm waaayyy below 75th for three of the five schools I'm applying to. Figure it's better to get in line...

Same problem with me man. Was consistently -0/-1 on LG and went -5 on PT71. It was my first section of my first take and I just kinda freaked out a bit.

Going to quit checking email for the night. Good grief. You'd think going grey and setting "Email Score Date" phasers to Present Day would get you a number ... but you'd be wrong.

Sure hoping the delayed testers get their scores soon. It is so nice to be done waiting.
