Hey guys! Here's the official Feb. LSAT Discussion Thread. Please keep all discussions of the Feb. 2016 LSAT here.
Here's some ground rules, taken from my usual sticky:
We know that everyone will be excited to discuss what was on the Feb '16 LSAT, but mentioning specifics about the test (e.g., "I got B for question 6" or "the 3rd LG was sequencing") can get both us and you in a lot of trouble with LSAC. Saying that the test was hard/easy without going into detail is okay, but anything more specific is not okay. LSAC monitors this forum.
If you're unsure what may be too specific, feel free to PM me with what you'd like to post.
One exception is you can say which section was the experimental. For example, the LG with "flowers" was experimental. That's okay.
TL;DR: PLEASE don't talk specifics about February's LSAT!
Have fun discussing!

Man.., I had two LG in the beginning, the first one almost impossible.. hope this was the experimental..
ugh those last 2 games
Still hung up on London, Paris & M
@as5324392 Yea, i took PT 77 on practice and it was a cake walk for me. Perhaps it suited better for my abilities but the difference in difficulty from my perspective was abysmal.
the RC FEB 16 was way harder than DEC 15. i wanna re-do! lol
@7sagestudentservices That is weird?
Hey guys, we had to temporarily remove the experimental section. Will let you know if/when we can put it back!
RC just wrecked my brain. I wasn't processing any of that.
@jkrauss022382 yes I remember it being pretty short if I recall correctly
RC was brutal -_-
It was about lobbyists and corporations regarding regulation and deregulation. Is this real or experimental?
Admin edit: Removed details.
Did the pillows/mirrors game have five questions?
Is there a list of confirmed experimental logic games?
Do you remember any more details about this question?
My exam had three LR, one LG, and one RC section. I found the LG section relatively straightforward, though they are typically my weaker section and I only completed three of the four so had to blindly guess on the London/Madrid game since I skipped it initially to work on the fourth game.
I found the RC section much more challenging than I had been prepared for. Again, only completed three of the four passages.
Two of the LR sections were, IMO, to be expected, though one of the sections was very challenging for me. Could have been nerves, though many of the questions tripped me up and LR is typically my stronger section. On my exam it was the first section. Having a difficult time recollecting which LR questions were on that section and I am praying it proves to be the experimental section.
Would greatly appreciate if we could find out the questions that comprised the experimental LR section. Best of luck, everyone!
@leeban92182 nerves can be apart of it but really think it was harder than any prac-test i have ever taken. Only time will tell.
@ranxu2015123 That sucks, I would get 18-20 points on a LG section but that 2nd game threw me off. I was also shaky on the 4th game, hopefully games 1 and 3 went well
exactly! I screwed up the entire section for that single game. it used to be my 100% part :(
@ultimate176178 That's ridiculous. Do you know if you are going to contact LSAC about this? I'm not sure if it is recommended to do so with an issue like this, but that's a huge deal. I'd be livid.
Yes the sections Dillon cites are the real ones.
I had 2 RC sections-- the last one (the real one, unfortunately) with the Native American/African American sculptor who studied in Rome; workers' rights and workers being able to have a say on corporate policy--- and the highly annoying confusing passages on suburban/urban sprawl (I still don't know how to describe the passage it was so confusing) and the even more annoyingly abstruse and boring passage on shrubs and hedges.
The only LG section I had was the furniture (mirrors, pillows, sofas); conferences (Madrid, London, Paris); and bookstore/authors.
I only had 2 LR sections and the topics were the same as Dillon cites above.
@jameskalcheim276 I had that order, though the actual experiential sexton. might be placed differently. I think section 3 was experimental for me, section 1 was definitely real
I had there LR sections (1,3,5) and was wondering if anybody who had that configuration knows which one was experimental (hoping it was the 5th). However, I'm also not sure if somebody with this same configuration of LR 1/3/5 could have had their first LR expiremental whereas my 3rd or 5th was experimental...
From what has been said here and in Reddit , the harder LG appears to be experimental, the one with the race horses.
I really thought the easy one was the experimental, It felt easy.
Or just 7sage made it feel that way.
I had 2 LG and I can remember barely anything about them except I did good on one and bad on the other. Do people agree that the experimental ones were hard? or are there any more hint words besides the ones that have been listed so far that can help me remember? Was there a real one with F, G, K?
Was the LG with G, K and L real or experimental ?
@ranxu2015123 The second game I didn't get at all, I had the rules but couldn't answer the first question, it was bizarre
