The LSAT really just needs to be a computer based test so the results would come out in a few days or a week.

Naw - I never get to write in cursive. I relish the opportunity to show off my flow.

Unless they get rid of logic games, I just don't see how this is feasible.

Why did LSAC spoil the fun and say no scores until after 12/28? I find the suspense strangely invigorating.

If you just assume LSAC lied then you can get the suspense back. It's easy if you (dis)believe!

I like B.

Banal is a triggering waiter word.

Thanks Pozzo!

Banal is a triggering waiter word.

I almost did my thesis on Arendt's Banality of Evil, but then I realized that I just liked the concept and didn't have anything original to say.

[Rigo]

I never have anything original to say, so I feel ya.

Baseless speculation of the day:

December takers requesting a refund on February registration must request by 1/10.
Official mailed score release date is 1/11.
Therefore, LSAC will release scores via mail by 1/9 to allow time to request a refund.

The email release date is one week before the mailed score release date.
Therefore, unless LSAC expedites mailing scores to non-online users, emailed scores will be released by January 2.

Hey friends, I need your help! Does either of these sound better? It's the second sentence of my PS. The first sentence is "It was already 3:30 AM."

A: With each passing minute, the discussion grew increasingly circular. After another twenty minutes of the same banal points being repeated ad nauseam, I interrupted the meeting’s monotony by calling for a vote to truncate discussion so that we could finally decide on the budget.

B: With each passing minute, the discussion grew increasingly circular as the same banal points were repeated ad nauseam. After another twenty minutes, I interrupted the meeting’s monotony by calling for a vote to truncate discussion so that we could finally decide on the budget.

Ty!

I like B better. But I would make some changes to it:

As time went on, the discussion grew increasingly circular. After another twenty minutes, I interrupted the meeting and called for a vote so we could finally decide on the budget.

Basically, I deleted excess words.

[34iplaw]

Basically, I deleted excess words.

I prefer this version as well. I think the other versions have a few too many words that, while not insanely out there, give the sentence a bit of a thesaurus-y tone.

Been lurking this thread for a while, I think it's about time I posted.

PM me if you're up to swap personal statements.

I cannot go through this again. Don't do this to yourself... I'm forcing myself to expect them jan 4

I know they won't come out until next week (I'm hoping for Monday as it usually comes early), but I can't stop checking my email. Thanks holidays for making us wait a week longer than everyone else

Is this your first take? I was exactly like this in September, I didn't sleep/eat for 3 weeks. This time, I honestly am very chill about it (and that's only a partial lie)

Yep, first take...translation: I'm a nervous wreck who keeps flipping between thinking I got anywhere from a 160-173. Ahh! I graduated in May after changing my mind about what I wanted to do with my life, so I didn't fully commit to law school until September. Waiting for my score while watching people already getting their acceptances is a serious struggle

All I'm saying is last time they released in December the predicted release day was January 4....

Thanks, now my email refreshing will be even more obsessive (serious nervous laugh. I can't handle the not knowing when it will come)

[BobBoblaw]

If i were the LSAC employee charged with deciding the exact date for sure releases, I think I'd get a huge trip about thinking of the effect of my decisions on the vacations) holidays of literally tens of thousands of people.

Haha the flipping between a 160 and 171+ stays the same on the second take too. I'm in the same boat. Waiting to submit my application for a few schools until I have my score; seeing other get accepted when I'm so close is killing me.
