If I identify the experimental section properly could I use it as a 35 minute break? Knowing that it's not going to be scored? Is this a good or bad idea for my test day? Let me know. Thank you

@benyamink26110, you're most welcome. To clarify, our digital tester has already been updated to reflect the new LSAT format (which has 4 sections and does not include Logic Games). The new PrepTests (101–158) contains 3 scored sections (LR, LR, & RC) and 1 experimental section (LR or RC). To access them, simply head to the digital tester and click the “Current format” button at the top.
Also, please note that all test-takers should now be using the re-designed syllabus. To make the change to V2 (the up-to-date version of our program), head to your Syllabus page and click "Switch to V2" at the top.
@saniquerowe thank you for the response, I understand. One other question I have is do you recommend I take 4 full sections when I am doing my prepetests? 3 scored sections and one section from the old preptests to simulate the experimental section?
@bpp000007598 did you try it when you took the test?
bro don't do it, trust 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hi @benyamink26110,
While it might be tempting to treat the experimental section as a break since it’s not scored, it isn't recommend that you do that for test day. You can't know for sure which section is experimental, so skipping one could mean missing a real scored section by mistake.
Maintaining endurance is also key. The LSAT is designed to test your ability to stay focused across multiple sections, so treating one as a break could disrupt your momentum and make it harder to stay engaged for the rest of the test. Even though it’s unscored, the experimental section still contains real LSAT-style questions, which can be valuable practice and reinforce your test-taking strategies.
I hope this helps!
bad idea. you could identify the "experimental" section as one of the sections which are actually scored
