Yessss! I can’t believe how low mine went and I felt that I answered most right or at least to the point that it would be better than my highest score.
Yeah I’m Definitely Looking For An In Person Tutor. Or A Really Good One On One Tutor. I Live In Southern California, An Hour Away From Los Angeles.
Not happy with mine either.
Yes. Much lower.
Anyone else score lower than they felt about it?
Can I ask a favor? I also had the tough last section of the LG- junior/senior, and have never seen anything like that before....I ran out of time. I had a number of proctor issues and decided to cancel my Feb Flex test score since LG is my best section, 0 to -3. Would someone message me where I could find something similar to this section in PT's or JY's teaching so that my next test, I am not completely stumped? Private message to my inbox would be fine too. Would really appreciate it. Thank you, in advance!
Big hugs to you all!!! We will get there....
@dbleserman398 I completely understand where you are coming from when you say that the events leading up to your exam may have derailed you from getting your best possible score. I had some technical difficulties prior to my exam that did not make me feel great about my performance as well. I know that some schools are accepting the April LSAT-FLEX as the last test in their Fall 2021 cycle for admissions. I signed up for the April LSAT-FLEX, just incase I was not pleased with how my February LSAT-FLEX score turned out. The deadline to sign up for the April test is tomorrow, FYI.
Try to take a deep breath and relax. Worst comes to worst, the score you receive wasn't what you wanted. At least you know that you are capable of doing better and can take it in April (or later if schools will not accept April LSAT-FLEX). It's difficult to say whether writing a separate addenda regarding this situation would work, but many schools are aware of the set-backs that COVID is causing for law school applicants. I suggest doing some research to see if the schools you are applying to will accept the April LSAT-FLEX.
I understand how difficult it is to keep yourself in a good headspace for the exam when there are factors going on that are out of your control. Give yourself a pat on the back for completing the test, even if the administering of the test did not go exactly as you planned. Stay strong, I hope everything works out in your favor.
Good luck in your journey!

took me an hour to sort out some tech problems (even after i pre-checked requirements) and proctor made me rearrange HOTEL furniture so that she could see the door lol.
I had major tech issues too, even after pre-checking! Congrats on keeping your cool and sorry about the hotel furniture, that is ridiculous haha.
@ishaalife1639 My apologies, I didn't see your comment earlier. I'm very cautious about disclosing any information as to test specifics, but I believe it is safe to say that the current LSATs have begun to incorporate some LG that require skills from much earlier exams. They do tend to shift skills over time and I would say that it's definitely important to go back and review as many of the early games as you can while still reviewing the newer games.
Just a head's up- it is against LSAC policy to disclose specific game types regardless of whether the exam has ended or not (they may still be administering accommodated tests too). I'd hate for anyone to lose out on all of their hard work and effort for accidentally over-disclosing.
@daveblount2017951 - that rule is incredibly confusing! The Priest can only sit immediately before one person, so I suppose the best interpretation of the rule would be what you wrote. However, this is such a weirdly worded rule that I am not 100% sure
:)
you can use control f in RC???
I had a major issue before the test that definitely affected my performance...
There was some confusion regarding secure browsers, and a representative of PSI assured me (falsely) that the entire exam is on THEIR secure browser, not just the LSAT Writing. PSI was undergoing maintenance while I was scheduled to take the exam, so I was at a complete loss. Months of studying and making sure my computer and hardware would work, only to be false information by one of the proctor companies. PSI told me the only thing I could do was contact the LSAT administrators. I was finally able to start the exam (with seconds to spare), but there's no way I performed as well as I should have with the events that happened immediately prior. I reported everything to LSAC to see what I can do, but my score for this test obviously can't get better. Do you think 2021 Fall law school admissions would accept an April score if I wrote down what happened as an addendum? This really screwed me.
Reading everyone's experiences makes me feel so crappy about this test. I though January went pretty smooth. This time, I had technical issues toward the end of my LG test. My screen kept going white saying lost connection every 30 seconds. I already struggle with LG and this one felt pretty difficult to me. LG was my first section. My proctor did nothing about it until I begged for help in the chat box after this happened for over 5 mins. At one point without notice they logged me out. Never came on the mic to reassure me what was happening. Pretty sure I lost some time during the process and the panic set in. So I lost out on working out an entire game. Threw off the rest of my test. LR wasn't that bad in my opinion, but I was very irritated by the tech issues that bled into the first part of LR. RC was okay, but that one's always a hit or miss for me. UGH.

I struggled with a section of LG, it was the second game so it threw me off that I was struggling with the second game! I’m pretty good with LG but after 2 minutes precious time I skipped over it & unfortunately had to guess the answers. RC all seemed more dense and difficult than Jan RC but I did my best. That being said, does anyone know when the grades are being released?
Hello,
The scores are being released on March 10th.
I struggled with a section of LG, it was the second game so it threw me off that I was struggling with the second game! I’m pretty good with LG but after 2 minutes precious time I skipped over it & unfortunately had to guess the answers. RC all seemed more dense and difficult than Jan RC but I did my best.

I took it this afternoon. LG/RC/LR...I was surprised by the following. The LG sections was pretty good hardly had any problems. RC passages were interesting I just used my strategy and Crtl F to make it out of that alive. LR wasn't as rough as I expected it to be. Overall I felt good had a Beer (non-alcoholic) and preceded to act like Ric Flair and beat up one my books.
I took it this morning. RC/LR/LG...I was pleasantly surprised by relative ease of LR and LG. I struggled with one of the RC passages, which is unusual for me. Overall I feel pretty good. The RC passages are definitely not the same for each test taker.

On results day, will we be able to review the correct answers?
unfortunately not - I believe all we get is a score out of 180, and this LSAT is unreleased so we don’t get the questions back.
I took it yesterday; my order was LG - LR - RC. I had junior-senior for LG and the same RC passages as @setty55163614. I personally found LR to be the most difficult - there were a couple questions that really stumped me and I was definitely unsure about my answers. Good luck to anyone who still has to take it and congrats to those who have already finished!
On results day, will we be able to review the correct answers? I can’t gauge my performance either. I was 0.1 sec late on guessing for the last question in LG and the timer went out. 😔
i took the test yesterday and no surprises - it was what i expected after studying here. that said, i am anxiously awaiting how i did. this was my first test and i just can't gauge it. took me an hour to sort out some tech problems (even after i pre-checked requirements) and proctor made me rearrange HOTEL furniture so that she could see the door lol. i managed to stay calm thanks to others that had forewarned some of these pitfalls. sending positive vibes into the atmosphere for us all :)

Anyone every finish RC with 6 mins left? I blew through it for some reason. LR I felt was average, but thought LG was fucked..
Same here, LG really threw me off
Just finished. Usually, RC is my weakest section but I felt really good about it this time. LR was medium, and LG was easy-medium. Congrats to everyone who took it, and good luck to those who are about to take it!
Just finished: LG, LR, RC
LG was pretty average and is like PTs from the 80s (not too hard, not too easy).
LR was also average. There were definitely a few challenging questions, though.
RC is going to make or break me. The two hardest passages were 8 questions each, so we'll see how it works out.
Congrats to everyone who took the exam!
