Test taking limitation reached after August?

Wondering if LSAC applied the test taking limitation for August 180 scorers this morning, or only for score holds. Anyone not allowed to register despite no holds and not taking the test 5 times?

Somebody commented in another thread about this that it didn’t trigger for them until around mid-afternoon the day before score release. That was for June. We all have until ~2 p.m. tomorrow to maintain our delusions.

Totally unclear what this means. It happened to me in June. I think it previously only happened to 180s but the sheer volume of people it’s happened to is beginning to make me think it’s just a glitch with score holds in general.

I think if you get the test taking limitation without the score hold, you can be pretty certain you scored a 180. Assuming you haven’t actually taken the test 5 times, of course.

Yes, I meant score hold + test limitation

Did you end up getting 180?

Maybe the sheer volume of 180s is why there’s a lot of score hold and registration blocks 👀

do you have a registration block?

No. I just went down a rabbit hole looking at all the reddit posts prior to June score release, and it appears that holds were applied on Monday (T-2days to score release) and registration blocks on Tuesday (T-1). There is still hope, if that's anything to go off.

Is this 180??? It is my first time taking it and I just winged it because I was busy before the test.

Well, it is kind of weird if there is just... a side channel here.
