I was at 7-Eleven buying a lottery ticket when I got the email. Then and there I knew my ticket wasn't going to win.

This is my first take, and you guys are making me SO NERVOUS

You and I have very different memories of that game.

I'm not a fan of either team and was just generally happy because I was with family drinking good beer (a 2012 Deschutes The Abyss).

Scores come out in batches all day long. And apparently there's no rhyme or reason to who gets their score when.

180s first. Then 179 then 178....

So if you've been waiting all day, bad news buddy.

No sugar coating it, it's awful. It's 5 minutes of pure adrenaline, racing heart, high blood pressure that settles into frantic refreshing of your email followed by more spikes of your heart rate/blood pressure every time you receive an email and ending with getting your score which leads to elation or despair.

There is no rhyme or reason to the release from what I've observed through these sorts of threads in the past.

This is why I haven't told anyone but my parents and SO that I'm planning on law school. If anyone at work/class asked me if I received my scores yet I would probably start breaking everything.

Yeah abyss I was just kidding. But the anxiety of grey day was tenfold when people convinced themselves that that was the case.

I think I am going to check the curve before I check my score, may help me get a better estimate of where I am..

This is going to be difficult with the way the information is arranged. Better to have someone else navigate your LSAC account to do this.

But odds are, someone else will get their score first, and once one person has access, they can let everyone know what the curve is

Check this thread. The curve will get posted by someone as soon as the first scores are released.

That's so damn simple that I feel really damn dumb right now. Good call.

The last day for Dec. LSAT registration is this Friday, the 23rd. MAny people would take the Dec. LSAT (more money for LSAC) if they score lower than they want (and you should! I have blogged about this 100 times here is one: http://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/should- ... -agree-yes). So it is in LSAC's best interest to get a score out this week, albeit likely late in the week because they like that it seem.

Just my 2 cents, expect change!

Mike
Please God, let the man be right!
I would be happy with a surprise weekend release.
I'm just imagining what the Atlanta forum will be like if grey day happens.

Oh that's a good point. I may fly down and watch that.
