International Test Takers! Forum

Where in NJ? I have a good friend from there.
GMAT as backup, maybe for JD/MBA.
Where did you go to school? why did you decide to go back to korea?

I like your dream. Made me laugh. I"m still stressing over the lsat. And i realize there is only a week left. I think nightmares are going to occur more and more often. Wish I knew which day the scores come out so i know which day i should go drinking....

[sandwiches5000]

I'm from Bergen County...

My backup is my MA in international law/foreign affairs and then maybe doing a joint degree with the JD. I may do the dual degree anyway though. I could be working on my personal statement but I want my score first so I know where I'm applying. Or maybe I'm just using that as an excuse to procrastinate since after months of working on LSAT stuff I kinda just want to relax hah.

[ds.princess]

feel the same way... just another few days left

[mjitbswyd]

I've been following this thread for days. Boy you guys are fun.

The score for the last June international test is Wednesday, if I remembered correctly. Don't have to panic for long.

[sandwiches5000]

Haha I'm glad someone else is finding our misery entertaining. I hope it comes by Wednesday... or maybe tonight???? Woo

[mjitbswyd]

It is entertaining because I am in the same boat with you. Today is quite unlikely but Wed is close enough.

I'm working at a big law firm right now and refreshing TLS and LSAC every hour. It better turn out good or getting fired for this is rrrreally not worth it.

[twaswoo]

by wednesday you mean this wednesday (6/13)? is the score likely to be released 6 days earlier than the specified date?

it'd be great if it does come out on wednesday, it would end this torturous wait once and for all. unless i have to retake on october, that is... jesus that would suck so bad lol.

[sandwiches5000]

I hear ya. I teach testing/English to Korean students... I'm at work right now and this is sooo distracting.

If you work at a big law firm why did you take the LSAT?

[mjitbswyd]

Yes, this Wed. It is normal to have the grade one week earlier. Most likely between Wed to Fri EST.

IT IS JUDGMENT!

Well actually many people I know go to US law school for JD after several years in biglaw (in international offices). I think it does make good sense since many people get into $200000 debt without knowing what law firm really does..

[sandwiches5000]

Oh, okay. I thought maybe you'd say something along those lines. Makes sense.

[twaswoo]

what kind of stuff do you do there? if this LSAT score turns out to be abysmal, i might just try to get a job at a law firm to see if i'd be missing much if i forgo my dream of becoming a lawyer...

[ds.princess]

oh my gosh, you guys are so depressing! it's perfect though, i'm depressed to so it works out well...
so when you say wednesday do you mean wednesday night-thursday morning? or tuesday night-wednesday morning? the 24 hours makes a huge difference!!!!
i'm about to die. At this point im watching tv trying to count down the hours. I'm wondering how many episodes until scores come out. Still counting on you guys to let me know when the score comes out!

[mjitbswyd]

All kinds of shit work. Translating, proofreading, due diligence etc.. Lengend says it's diffrent when you're a senior, but vast majority don't become seniors in a firm. Note some people do enjoy it, though I don't know why.

I think it's Wed EST. Meaning Wed night and Thurs morning for you. But please don't stay awake all night for this..

[sandwiches5000]

They are 13 hours behind us right now. So it's ~7:30 a.m. Monday at the LSAC Center right now.

[ds.princess]

im gonna cry

[sandwiches5000]

from the wait... or...

[sandwiches5000]

Just checked the LSAC site. no score. none of the famed "dashed lines" around the LSAT status box either (although I don't really believe that the lines mean anything.)

[ds.princess]

Sandwhiches; I was talking on the phone when i was reading your last post. So i skimmed it so fast. i missed the 'no' part of 'no scores' and freaked out for a second.
This is not doing good things for my mental health.
no dashed lines for me either. not that i think it means anything but... SOMETHING ANYTHING would be nice.
Heres to another night of waiting.
At least time passes fast when we're sleeping. But this is when nightmares come to haunt us.

[sandwiches5000]

NOTHING.

I had pretty crazy dreams though.

Here's to tonight!!! I really think it's going to be Wednesday though.

[ds.princess]

No nightmares last night, but could'nt sleep. dunno which is worse.
still no dashed lines. I'd like to have them!
heres to another day... no scores BUT keep hoping for the best still.
Preserverance.

[tdicks]

Y'all keep talking about refreshing the lsac page... Do scores come out there first? Should I be obsessing over that in addition to checking my email every 5 minutes?

[ds.princess]

yes. I was reading another thread, and one person said that the score on the LSAC page came out like 5 min before the email did. But I gues five minutes doesn't make that much of a difference....
how's everyone holding up today? closer to d-day

[sandwiches5000]

They show up on LSAC's website first. I wouldn't bother refreshing until at least 9:30-10 p.m. (Seoul time.) They don't open until 8 a.m. EST.

[risingdragon]

Well, calm down guys. The score would be released anyway and you may regret seeing it. At least I am not hurried but just curious. But... let's fucking pray!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: I did not find my score in my e-mail box but saw a over speed ticket from New York State Police Agency instead. What the hell is going on???? They must give me a 170+ to go to CU/NYU to pay that ticket.
