I think scoring and lowering the cut off line are apples and oranges. I don't think they can change the scoring process itself but it seems to me they can assess and adjust the minimum score required which is how the October-December group got back in the game in the first place. My WAG is that ascertaining the minimum score may be one of the reasons why it takes a while to get NORs. Apples and oranges, hmmm, let's see. Both start and end with a vowel, both are round, both have skins, both have seeds, both are a fruit, both grow in a tree. You have read one too many psych CE reports.

I don't recall when the scoring for the LSAT changed from max of 48 to max of180, but 123 would have been in the lower percentile under the current scoring method. I don't know what she would have been bragging about, but then that is probably your point Gary...lol. Back in my day it was scored on a scale with a max of 800, so whippersnappers, mine is bigger than yours. It is nice to see that there is someone else on this Board from that era. You can probably imagine my shock several years later when a person proudly told me his daughter had scored something like a 36.

Cafeta's post reminds me of a story.
When my mother decided to end her medical treatment and go to hospice, one of the doctors insisted she have a psychiatric evaluation. (Okay, it was the doctor in charge of the rehab unit where she was receiving physical therapy and she ruined his record of 100% positive results to 99%.) Anyway, the psychiatrist came in and asked her a myriad of questions, which she answered while lying in bed with her eyes closed. When he got to the apples and oranges question, she replied "they roll." He was taken aback and asked her again. "They roll. They are round and you can roll them." At that point, the psychiatrist said there was no need to go any farther with the exam. There was nothing wrong with her mind and she could do whatever she wanted.

After all the speculation, I cannot remember for certain the LSAT number/nickname of that proud young lady. I want to say it was perhaps "157." Nothing to sneeze at, but nothing to crow too loudly about. I pass no judgment here...
I've said before and I'll say again- being a "B" student in a highly accomplished group is a very familiar role.
So I need to heed my own wisdom when I change my own nickname to "SDT." Sigh.

Someone did that? Geez. I onetime got 600k on Galaga BAC, that score alone should be enough to get you on the register. First, it was my favorite game for many years (albeit I never got close to such a high score); second, it shows you have great tenacity. My dad always said college does not mean you are smarter than someone else, but that you had the tenacity to finish the program and get that degree. So, I would submit to the board that the word of the day should be "tenacity," for without a doubt, it is the single most important "skill-set" one could have in applying for ALJ. I wonder how the DOT describes the job of ALJ? Never really thought to look it up. Certainly would not be unskilled work; I wonder what its "reasoning level" is?

I like that thinking! Unfortunately that score was some loooong time ago. I'd be lucky to get 60k today...
