Is that what yours says?

wtf mine says the 4th too... what the FUCK?

12/27 is my prediction. They are always released before the stated date.

Hope you're right bro.

I think there is some chance that it will be released before christmas since the test was the 1st, but recent tests they've taken longer then usual to come out with scores so probably not.

ill be so pissed if they wait until after new years.... waiting a month for these scores will be TORTURE.

I think that it'll be released before the 4th, but not before the new year :/. The reason why the October Test came out late was because of Sandy.

How often have the December tests come out really early?

The december lsat used to come out really early all the time, but recently it hasn't.

My guess is 12/21 based on this: http://www.manhattanlsat.com/actual-score-release.cfm

Probably Jan 2.

Hey, i took dec LSAT last year, then had to wait until this cycle to apply. 0 sympathy. 2 days before expected release date sounds about right, they're getting later and later as the years go by.

Plus, everyone that sat for Dec LSAT will submit all at once so what does it matter if it's before the new year or after?

man this is straight butt!

There's certain scholarships that you're only eligible for if you apply before the new year.

Then you may need to wait a year. You should have know it is possible for scores to take a month.

if i have to wait a year i might as well retake and get a 175+... why the fuck would i wait for these people to release a test like that...? jan 4th? thats such bs.

i made sure EVERYTHING was in on time... the least they could do is uphold their end of the bargain.

nah, it's time to move on.

I am actually trying to forget I took it so time will go by faster. So far I am failing miserably.

Their end of the bargain is about 4 weeks usually. There is no reason you should expect a test taken in December to come out before the end of the month. It takes 4+ weeks under the best circumstances, but with increased postal loads of the holidays and closures for those same holidays you should expect it to take no less than 4 weeks, likely closer to 5. You delayed, that sucks but is far from LSAC's fault. If you had looked at last years you would have known it came after Jan 1.

right. i graduate college in 3 years and i should have studied and taken the LSAT after my second year. please.

the LSAC as well as most law schools claim that the December test is a safe test to take for that cycle. if that wasn't the case they shouldn't make that claim, period. 3 weeks is a perfectly reasonable time to run a scantron in....

they can run every election ballet in 1 day but it takes the LSAC a MONTH to grade a few LSATS? ok.

You would think they could at least get raw scores out fairly quickly. I know it's more work for them to send out information twice but that'd be so sick.

And as less people take the archaic style test, it should take less time. Last year wasn't taken on the 1st, it was the 3rd making the 23rd the final Friday before the holidays. The tests that have been taken on the 1st and 2nd were returned on the 20th and 21st respectively. There is no reason to not be optimistic. I'm sorry you are bitter about last year but it shouldn't make everyone else a negative nancy.

The December test is perfectly acceptable to get admission. I applied with a December score and it was fine. A December test is fine for admissions but I guess some schools have scholarship deadlines, that's not LSAC's fault.
