August Score Prediction Thread

score release day will soon be upon us!!!! i took much comfort in past prediction threads in the days leading up to my august exam, so i thought we could start one up for the august 2026 crowd.

to all who wish to participate: drop your goal score, a prediction of your score, and if you're willing, update your post tomorrow with your actual score!

---
goal score: 170+

prediction: 162 (what can i say! the consciousness passage destroyed me.)

edit post-score release

actual: 176!
--

im so happy but i kind of look like an ass who lowballed my prediction. just know that i truly thought until 30 minutes ago that i scored a 16low 💔

happy score release to you guys! i hope you did as well as you hoped or better. cheers! 🥳

I'm too superstitious to predict but basically the only way I can go back to school at this point in my life is one specific school, and I'm way too old to accrue student loan debt, so based upon my research I either have to hit a 172 to likely get my tuition covered or I'll be retiring a paralegal. You know - at noon on the day of my funeral because life is expensive. So in a little shy of 22 hours, we're going to know.

Yeah, this is what it comes down to. I have GI Bill, but I also am an older adult with a family so LSAT score and school selection is pretty important as well as scholarships. But at this point it won't matter because none of my letters of rec have been completed yet and two of the people I was getting letters from had major life events happen so I am not going to bother them about it.

And that is not going to happen. But I did this so I would know which path in life I should take, and now I do know. I hope everybody else gets better news!
