Checking in. Applied a few days ago, not really a fan of forums like these but thought I'd give it a shot. Anyone know how they view multiple LSAT scores (I have an 8 point difference for no good reason other than a really bad first test…)

Most of the schools will just accept the high score because that is what they report to LSAC. You could have submitted an LSAT addendum explaining your history if it concerned you.

I didn't want to do an addendum because I really don't have a reason for doing poorly haha. Also I feel like I have such a slim chance of getting in anyways, so not a big deal, I was just curious

Don't worry about it. On their website they say that they only consider the highest score. "All scores will be received but we will use the highest score in our evaluation."

I went complete a while ago but only got the email this morning.

Dammit, you're right Ben. In my defense, I just woke up.

I had a dream where I had to go back to high school, then I tackled a kid during recess, and then somehow aliens? It was odd.

Checking in. Recent successes have gone to my head. Bracing for failure.

Also, QC - sweet name. You run?

Yeah! I ran XC and track D1, sadly pretty much my only soft during undergrad because of the time commitment. I love using QC as my username because it is generally only recognized by the hardcore running fans (unlike PreLives or Stop_Pre_XC, etc.)

You run too?

Haha, I completely understand with the softs - same here. I ran at a D3 school, though at least a pretty good one... mostly 5k/10k work, and XC obviously.

Yeah honestly I'm a little more in touch with the D3 running scene than D1 currently because my fiancee is running D3.

Applied last Thursday. Hoping to go complete soon. Anyone know when the first round of JS1s typically go out?

No Justice Scalia in the poll?! You must not have watched the HLS entry in ATL's 2015 Law Revue video contest.
