No one is responding to my posts today. I hope I am not being selfish and annoying. Apologize if I do, it's just a bad day.

I've been self loathing lol, I think everyone is just freaking out. honestly I'm taking the whole 20 DAMN POINTS below my average pretty well. not. let's kill this tomorrow bro

Did you misbubble or something? Damn.

explained in the waiters thread so sorry if I sound like a broken record. to sum it up don't take the test with pneumonia

so much respect dude. that fucking sucks so much and you are not to blame. got hit with a 100+ degr fever a week before the test and if it'd been a week later i'd be in the exact same boat. I really hope you kill it extra hard in december to make up for this shit.

(eta: how did I end up on this thread? thought this was the waiter thread. you're drunk, alex, go home.)

thanks alex, congratulations on the stellar score I really hope to be in your position in January. I just hate making excuses but what happened happend. a bunch of stuff I could have done but I've made my bed now I have to lay in it, luckily apps are still realtievy low so early january isn't super late.

i hope so too. dude what happened isn't your fault at all - you're not making excuses - and i applaud you for taking it so well.

Congrats man, I saw you got 179?!? Incredible!!!

That said, any advice/wisdom for the rest of us taking it in December?!? How long have you studied in total?

[Greenteachurro]

Looking forward to taking the September 2016 LSAT for my first PT back since cancelling my score after that virus game, hopefully I haven't lost all my knowledge haha. Officially starting prep for December, good luck to everyone!

[Vino.Veritas]

Checking in! Just wrote September, got a decent score under my belt but I know I can do better (I was about 6 points below my average). Trying to stay positive. I've been a long time lurker here and I'm pumped to do this all again - this time with you!

I did a total 180 today (...........) from feeling like I wanted to die to being super motivated to do this all again a month from now.

Use this time to figure out where you went wrong, even if it is nerves take your PTs at the bottom floor of the library or somewhere out in the open on campus. Honestly, I'm going to just drill the hell out of pattern games and RC, bought a subscription to the economist for denser reading material. You already know what test day is like, have a solid foundation; we've got 6 weeks to put it all together.

100%. Yeah I was taking PTs at 8:30am on campus starting a month before test day. But a bad sleep the night before combined with nerves did a number on me. RC and hasty mistakes on LR killed me. This was my first time around so I'm not stressing too much, next time most of those first timer nerves should be gone. Glad to have a decent score under my belt and 6 weeks to make some more gains.

Shit a decent score would give me a confidence boost, I went below my diagnostic but am ready to destroy this starting tomorrow. The only thing that sucks is next grey day, my hand is going to be on the apply button because we are kind of on the wire, not horribly tho

I'm in Canada so my decent score is likely very far away from your decent score haha. I mean as long as everything else is ready for your application the time crunch shouldn't be too much of an issue.

PS and Why X essays are cued up on my end, still waiting on some LORs. I just started working at Guardian Ad Litem so maybe it'll beef up my resume even more; mark my works I will be getting at least a 175 in December; got caught with my pants down in september but, this will reconcile for it.

Great attitude to have. I will also be reconciling in December - 168 to 171 is happening!

Hi guys! This is my first post here. Thought I'd say hi.

I'm taking the December LSAT. I took the September, but felt I didn't do as well as I had been practicing and cancelled my score. I was, and still am, practicing around 177-180. Any advice how to best set myself up for scoring as well as I have been? I try to take tests under conditions as similar as possible to the actual day, but impossible to replicate the fear haha. Also, during my September test, the person sitting in front of me's water spilled all over my feet during Reading Comp and I completely lost focus so hopefully that just won't happen in December.

Man, your case is out of the ordinary and I can only empathize. At least you know that as long as you show up healthy you are basically guaranteed a much better score. But looking forward to sharing tips. I am staying positive as well.

this is going to sound extremely cynical and douchey but I don't think I'm guaranteed anything lol. my mindset in August was I need to be able to do well on test even missing an arm. Yes, I am beating myself up, yes I know my bitching is getting old. It stops tomorrow and the real grinding work starts.

Here is a link the free BR meetings. You can call in or use citrix meetings to BR tests with other users! It is a big help

Good lord, well if my garbage LSAT score wasn't enough to bring me down, getting eight of the 23 questions I missed wrong upon review is. Off to a wonderful start.

Edit: Was complaining about a question that had me stumped but as soon as I did, it made sense. I think I fried my brain figuring it out though. @_@

[kindofcanuck]

There we go, all registered to do this again.

Cannot believe the next two months are prepping blind without being able to see what I flunked. Although I suspect it was mediocre performance across the board.

[Rupert Pupkin]

Not necessarily checking in. I do have to re-take, but considering my heavy course-load, I don't want to rush and waste a potential take in DEC or mess up my GPA. Not ideal, but I think sitting out this cycle, and taking when I am 100% Confident and ready is the move.

Will poke my head in here as a I continue to study! Lets crush this !

[Greenteachurro]

Lol most of my anomaly was in the Virus game lost 6 points, pretty much made up all of my abnormal point loss. Guess I'll try to do all of the weird games from now until then. Happy studying.
