October 2013 LSAT Score Release Dates

LSAT Blog October 2013 LSAT Score Release Dates
Good luck to everyone taking the October 2013 LSAT!

The October 2013 LSAT scores / results are scheduled to be released via email by Wednesday, October 30, 2013, so you'll have to wait for your LSAT score.

However, the scores usually come out a bit earlier than scheduled.

Let's look at the trend over the past several years (click to enlarge):

LSAT Blog October 2013 LSAT Score Release Dates


Last year, for the first time ever (that I know of, anyway), LSAC released scores after the scheduled release date for a test administration. Why? It may have something to do with the fact that this was in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy (LSAC's office was closed).

Let's assume this won't happen again.

I've also never heard of them coming back on the scheduled release date itself. So, assuming a hurricane doesn't delay score release like it did last year, I'm going for Monday, October 28th, or Tuesday, October 29th as the most likely score release dates based on the above.


"But at what time specifically do scores come on score release days? I need to know when to constantly refresh my email / LSAC account!"

In batches over the course of several hours. Likely starting late in the day (Eastern Time).

No one knows how the batches are organized, if at all.

The batches do not seem to be organized in any of these ways:

alphabetical/regional/high-to-low scores/low-to-high scores/test center #, etc.

Wish everyone all the best!

Please feel free to vent and discuss your general thoughts on the exam in the comments, but no specifics about particular questions themselves, please. (LSAC doesn't permit such discussion.)

  1. I'd bet -- but only a modest amount -- that if you looked at a map, you'd find they're batched geographically.
    Anyone care to share data that would allow us to figure this out?
    (I have the same theory regarding the distribution of experimental sections, fwiw.)

    1. That's exactly what I need. I've had so many dreams... ones in which I get 170+ and others where I get in the 150s... instant doom.

      I just want to know at this point.

  6. When will we know if today is the big day?

    ReplyDelete
  7. When/if the boxes on the LSAC site turn grey

    ReplyDelete
  8. The six green "u turn" looking symbols located beside your LSAT Date information (found under "LSAT > LSAT Status) will turn gray. This means the scores will be released shortly, usually towards the end of the business day. I took the LSAT in June and I received the email around 2:45pm. The LSAT website will have the scores posted before the email is sent out (a minute or so prior) Also, your score is DIRECTLY in the email so if you are wanting to wait and check it with someone, hold off on even opening the email or checking your LSAT Account. I checked this website actually to read if other people had received their scores and once it begins, it's not much longer until everyone gets their score.

  30. Folks, they don't seem to be out anywhere. The "gray"s above were probably trolls. Last year they started late afternoon and it took several hours for all of them to get out. And if you want to add your geographic location, that's fine, but they aren't release geographically. They come in batches, but nobody seems to know by what method (if any) batch is determined (read post above).

    ReplyDelete
  31. Just based on past experience- if boxes turn gray today, it likely will not happen until 3:00 pm ET at the earliest. Deep breaths everyone!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Green in North Dakota

  34. (proximity to LSAC doesn't mean anything)

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm going to give LSAC a call to see what's up.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Good call. Don't forget to let us know!

      Delete
    2. Ok guys, I just called and asked if today is the big day. The only response that was given was a violently evil laugh. Also, I think I heard the lost souls of past LSAT takers crying in the background while two little girls sang Ring Around the Posy right before the lady hung up.

      Delete
  36. Well, I called LSAT. They said the following: "Why the f--- are you calling us?" Also, FYI, I live across the street from LSAC headquarters. They've been loading up big trucks all morning, which is something they usually do when they release scores. Also, the lights were on all last night, which usually means they're working on it. It also could mean absolutely nothing, so maybe we should just stop freaking out and wait for the scores to be released.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Green in Rhode Island, I'm sure they will probably be released today given the recent trend cycles

    ReplyDelete

    1. Ok. Given the trolls on this board, I was skeptical of the "Gray Symbol" idea, but since I found the jpg file in the site's code I am convinced it must be true.
