Signed up for Dec, but I am leading one of our university's design team and have been working 12 hours a day for the past two weeks just trying to meet our Dec deadline. I have absolutely no fucking clue whatsoever how I'm going to do this while preparing for LSAT.

Worst thing is that having a non-disclosed test means I don't even know how I screwed up this badly.
Are you on an formula SAE team?
Yep, leading the team while designing the whole of the suspension system and steering, and our design freeze comes in early November.

I was on the team briefly before I quit mech. engineering. It's chaos. You going to Detroit?

That is such an awful feeling but now that you have your first take over with, you'll prob score much closer to your average on your retake.

Thanks, sanibella.

With our shared LG difficulties, I'm so happy we both managed -1
I was very happy!

Only thing I'm unhappy with is that first LR but whatever. I think being over both of Cornell's 75 and URM should get me a fully or pretty close and at the end of the day that's all I really need.

Are you set on HYS now?
First LR killed everyone. I was -6. I don't remember it being that difficult. Went -1 on the second LR.
LR -4 (17, 20, 23, 24)
RC -4 (3, 20, 24, 25)
LR -3 (18, 20, 21)
LG -3 (17, 22, 23)

I felt fucking golden heading into LG. And then only missed 1 on game three (was wrong about being wrong, previously).
I went -0, -0 on game 3 and 4, and -1, -1 on game 1 and 2. Dumb mistakes that I am pissed about.
I can't (read: too inebriated) look at specific questions right now. So just pissed.

prodigal, you can take it again, right?

Thank you! And congrats on the jump!

The Abyss wrote:Really happy you hit 170+. You going to retake?
Thanks! If you retake, I hope you can hit the 171+ you wanted. I haven't decided. If my friend retakes, I'll probably retake for Dec because having a study buddy makes the whole thing so much more tolerable and I really want H which I don't think I can get without the PR boost.

appind wrote:congrats!

that's rocking compared to some 70s PT setbacks the week before.
Omg right? That 163 scared the shit out of me.

yep, got 166/168 the week before on the two 70s tests the week before but i withdrew. looks like you killed RC.

It's the biggest clusterfuck in the department.

In UK so technically it's Formula Student rather than FSAE, the event is July next year.

Is it just me or do Formula One cars sound like shit now. I loved the way those 3.0L V10s sounded.

I'm trying to put together some medical records for a fourth take petition.

So, likely not.

172. I'm in complete shock, considering I got a 166 in June and my highest PT was 171. I went:

LR1: -2
LR2: -2
RG: -2
LG: -1

The logic games score is the most surprisingly considering I fudged my way through the second game. But I'll happily take it!

You're speaking of the cars now, right? I agree if so. It's ugly. F1 is supposed to be beautiful and they sound like trash.

it's been fun folks -- you all were clever picking up on my stupid hints this morning. The first of which was me bounding over and yammering away. Now I need to get to heavy work for the next millennium.

Thanks, sanibella.

Have you checked your answer sheet to make sure it wasn't a bubbling error? Even so, I still stand that your nerves will be out of your way for the second take.

The Abyss · Post by **The Abyss** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 10:25 pm

The greatest lap every raced in any racing sport ever. I give you Ayrton Senna at the European Gran Prix. He was on dry tires while it was raining, when everyone else had wet tires on, and he went from 4th to 1st in one lap. Amazing.

*stares at LSAC lurkers*

I've been trying to get these records for three weeks. This specialist's clinic refuses to answer the phone (also why I still owe $25 for "failing" to notify them I was cancelling an appointment after calling 10+ times over three days).

RZ5646 · Post by **RZ5646** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 10:25 pm

LSAC doesn't have my transcript yet, so I don't have an official LSAC GPA. Should I request fee waivers with my hand-calculated one, or wait?
