Yo the RC was tough as nails - fuuuuk. Life can wait another cycle maybe..?
Congrats on completing January 2022 everyone (3 xxx(/p)
My proctor was a God sent! He was so great and super nice. Such a relieve if i am being honest. I had two LR and I thought I was ready to pass away tbh RC was HARD AS FUCK!!! my first passage I thought I was a goner. LG wasn't as bad as I thought but one game was way to fucking hard. Lets hope I did well enough to get into law school. Just celebrating its over....for now at least...maybe. Drink up guys!!!
I had 2 LR and felt like I was dying lol. Seconding that I hope they use the one I felt I did better in because the first one threw me off
Anyone else have problems with Proctor U?! My test started an hour and a half late. Not a great way to start!!
Shout out to my proctor Gissel. During the October test there was about an hour between when I sat down to when I actually started the first section. Gissel had me hitting the ground running in less than ten minutes. Love you girl xoxo
Does anyone know the policy for lost time? I disconnected three times and lost over five minutes on one section, in which I couldn't answer the last 6 questions. I was told to directly contact LSAC but I'm wondering if this has happened to anyone else.
Contact LSAC. I was also disconnected and lost about 30 seconds in Section 3. Not a significant loss by any means but I had to wait for 5-10 minutes for them to reconnect me to the exam. I lost 2-3 min during RC as well because my laptop was dying and I had to plug in the charger. After, I plugged in the laptop, the proctor made me stop and do a full pan around the room again.
Definitely seeing some inconsistencies in terms of proctor quality and their knowledge of the rules. I had to remind my proctor that an analog watch was allowed. She made me move my entire desk across the room so she could see the door to my office behind me. This kind of threw me off because my seating arrangement felt unfamiliar. Also, lost 2 min of my 10 min break waiting for the proctor to give their blessing.
Did any of your RCs have a passage about astronomy and planetary cores? That was my last RC passage. I didn't even have the time to read it through completely. I relied on topic sentences to get the gist of the article.
I had 2 RC sections. It was brutal Plus my Proctor was mean, created unnecessary stress at the beginning. The funny part was that I had 2 RC and RC is my weakest part so... speechless.
the section that i usually get 100% failed me today... what am i supposed to do
The test was a mess for me. I was supposed to start at 5:40 PM, but I didn't start the exam until 6:35. I kept having connection issues where, for whatever reason, the internet tab with the LSAT would switch over to a different proctorU tab without my input and give me an "unstable connection" warning. Then I'd have to repeatedly switch back to the tab with the LSAT on it. It was very irritating to have to deal with this. I'd be reading a stimulus, and then the screen would switch on its own, distracting me. I also think I messed up RC since I started running out of time on the hardest passage. My family got a bit too loud during my section with LG and then I started to guess for the last 3 or 4 LG questions. Not to mention that I completely disconnected at one point during LG (my time got paused, though). I had two LRs.
Did anyone else have multiple proctors? I got 4 proctors in total on test day tonight. It probably had to do with my connection issues.

There's some full-fledged angel queens out there - I hope I get one tomorrow 10:50am CST - o Lord have mercy..
I'm retaking this test tomorrow. Just out of curiosity, is anyone else here retaking tomorrow?
I hate that I was able to finish the experimental LG section with time left but could not finish the game section that counts towards the score..... I hate it here

@tasialane12376 I had the same LGs as you did in your second LG section (I only had 1 LG with 2 LRs). The game about the market was doable, but kinda long-winded. The last game with the two libraries was my last game and the hardest. My family got loud when I was working on it, and I lost concentration so I just guessed on the last 3 questions for that game.
if you want to find out which section was experimental for the january lsat, listen the powerscore podcast that was released today on their youtube channel!

Omg SAME!!! I have been praying every day the one that was easier for me gets graded please God!

How was the logic game section? I'm taking my test later today. A bit worried about how the difficulty is going to be.
I know you probably know this by now but it was difficult :neutral:
I had LG-RC-LR-LG.
@juliemwheats418
The first LG was bit of a struggle (trio/ quartet, and parks) the second one felt better (libraries: main or neighboring, and markets: 2 regions, 2 stores, and I believe like 4 different markets that you could choose from i.e. florist, restaurant, laundromat, I forgot the other).
Honestly RC was a coin toss. 2 LG wasn't that bad (did good in one and not so good in the other) hopefully the test uses the LG section I was able to fully complete. LR wasn't that bad if you've been practicing.
Can anyone share their honest opinion about the test?
Proctor U was such a nightmare! I was also delayed for like an hour and a half and had trouble ending the test! I can still feel the stress knots this morning...
So I was connected to ProctorU for an hour and a half, but couldn't start the exam because of a bad internet connection.... even though it was working fine when I ran diagnostics earlier this morning. I was told I need to reschedule my exam, has anyone had issues with this? Any advice is truly appreciated!
I had trouble on proctor U as well! Test started 45 minutes late and my proctor didn’t know how to end my intermission…. Rough

What would need to happen in order for you to be given a re-take date?!?! This is the second LSAT in a row I had major issues with PROCTORU. I have reported them and they haven't offered me a re-test date!!!
Hey there,
When you mentioned you reported your proctor issues, was this done via email or phone? I would recommend calling LSAC directly and explaining the situation (be as precise as possible about everything). I also had testing issues for January and was granted a re-take. You can also file a complaint on the LSAC website (you might've already done that, not sure) by selecting LSAT ---> LSAT status. Best of luck!
