I guess that gave you the motivation needed to push for the two extra points.Bauer24 wrote:According to SAT: 175

Close enough,
A difference is that I didn't study for the SAT at all and I was hardcore about studying for the LSAT (self-studied, no prep).
My GPA started with a 2 when I took the LSAT...

Re: SAT/LSAT Conversion Forumla
I got a 1560/1600 on the SATs.
Should have gotten a 175 on the LSAT but instead got a 165.
I guess that's what happens when the math goes away but even just looking at verbal alone, it should have been a 173.

Re: SAT/LSAT Conversion Forumla
Gave me a 168, got a 173, just barely within the margin of error.
I didn't study a day for the SAT though, and did 3 intensive weeks for the LSAT (including reading the ever-living fuck out of the Logic Games Bible).

Because +/- 5 isn't a huge range or anything...

Re: SAT/LSAT Conversion Forumla
SAT prediction = 173.85; Actual LSAT score = 177. Not too far off.
I scored a 770 on my SAT verbal, so AwesomeRossum's formula actually worked exactly. Nifty.

Re: SAT/LSAT Conversion Forumla
Predicted: 165 or 168 or 162, depending on which score you use
My actual better be higher. Much higher. Or my life is over.

Wow that's pretty accurate. Gave me just over a 166 and I got a 167. It also gave me a hat, which I thought was nice.

The formula thinks my LSAT should have been two points higher. I agree. Dang it.

I didn't study for the ACT, but studied for the LSAT, fittingly I got 5 points over what it said I should.

Well, this makes me feel better. I didn't study/care much in high-school and I was doing a lot of partying (drugs & alcohol) and I scored 29 and 1270 on my ACT and SAT, respectively. Therefore, I should get a 161 on my LSAT; however, I actually plan on doing some serious prep for the LSAT. I'm shooting for a 170.

I was a slacker and didn't study at all for the SAT. I figured taking the one forced PSAT session constituted adequate test prep.

Predicted: 176
this better happen or im suing this thread!!
edit: it's actually (M+V)/20.7+100.7
which is better for my mind because I like the number 177 more than 176

Here's another formula, based on a sample size of a 70 people:
SAT (out of 1600) * .0333 + 121.03

Re: SAT/LSAT Conversion Forumla
Come now Mike, doing well on the SAT has nothing to do with giving a shit in high school.
For instance, I got about 9 Ds (but always did just enough work to pass) and managed a 1560 after 2 SAT practice tests.
Pred 176
Actual 177
That being said, I didn't give a shit in college either...

Re: SAT/LSAT Conversion Forumla
I know this is real dumb, but that doesn't make it less enticing.
Pred: 164-174 (169.5 actual prediction)
Actual: 174 (first time, no re-takes)
I took a Kaplan SAT class and did practically no other prep for a 1440 (retook for a 1450).
For the LSAT, I studied pretty hard for two to three weeks.
I am inclined to say I studied harder for the LSAT which accounts me being at the very end of the (incredibly large, actually) margin of error, but I don't know. The +/- 5 LSAT points is a lot so I don't think this is anything magical.
