After you learned that scores have been posted by TLS. Get something like an opaque sheet of paper to cover your screen and move it from right to left on your LSAT status page. By seeing your percentile first, you can estimate what your score will be thereby minimizing the shock.

179 - 99.9
178 - 99.8
177 - 99.7

HAHA, hilarious, I had a similar plan. Go from right to left on the score and see the last number, then the middle :D

So crazy that a 170 represents the top 2 1/2 %. So many TLSers treat it as just acceptable....

You should maybe consider logging into your LSAC account at some point.

Well, if those icons turn into numbers, now i know. I've never seen what the scores end up looking like and assumed u had to click the icons to bring up the data.

Good point. TLSers are such overachievers!

This speculation is too crazy. I think TLS needs to hire a resident psychologist just for times like these.

Even if you are the only one, you could be right.

I am with you. I am cracking the heck up just looking at folks losing their minds on here, reacting to every little sneeze and wind that blows by
