LSAC and Prometric destroyed my life today

Today I was supposed to complete my LSAT retake after prometric’s technical issues booted me halfway into my test 12 days ago. Today my test wouldn’t even launch and prometric did NOTHING!

I call LSAC and they tell me I can’t register for the February LSAT because the test I was booted from technically counted as my 5th test and even though I couldn’t even see my retake, it somehow still counts.

I submit an appeal to allow me a 6th (really it’s a 5th) test in February but considering it takes a while heaping fucking 5 business days to handle my request, by the time they would attempt to resolve it, I would be past the deadline to register for the February LSAT.

My only option is April so there’s virtually no chance I can apply for 2025. My entire life was planned around getting this last score in early feb. My PT’s have all been consistently mid-high 160’s after constantly getting low-mid 150’s.

I was so ready today. I was so ready on the 16th. And through prometric’s incompetence and LSAC lack of giving a shit, it all meant nothing. Now I have to explain to my employer that I’m actually not leaving in 2025. Hopefully that’s possible.

As for my living situation—I don’t even know what the plan is there yet. Already planned to leave my current place so guess there’s always coming to my parents with my take between my knees and asking to live with them for a little bit.

I’m not one to come to Reddit and rant. In fact, I typically skip most rants I see on Reddit. But I have so much anger and sadness in me and it seems there’s no way to get rid of it besides telling as many people as I can that LSAC nor prometric gives a shit about us.

I’m sure most of you already knew this but I feel like it needs to be reiterated.

Thanks for getting this far.
