I just took a PT and I am devastated. The experimental LR section was -3. Had it been swapped out, I would have scored a 163 rather than a 157. I know we can't choose on the real exam, but it is ARBITRARY here; these are not real experimental sections, and we are not given the option of a three section PT. From a mental perspective, seeing a range of possible scores would be really helpful. I know I have to go back and dig into all of the sections, which I will do. But I have to tell you that I feel like quitting right now. It sucks that my mood would be so much different if it had popped up as a 163, but that’s what’s up.

Also, what is going on with the typing field here? I had to write this in Word and paste it is. Every other keystroke is being erased, doubled, or backed up? Anyone else having this issue?

    @amanhasnoname Also experiencing the typing challenges! 7Sage team said they're working on it.

    Yeah, I regret posting this now. I was just bummed. Hey, 7Sage. Can you pull this down for me?

    I'm confused why you think your score would be changed if the experimental section were different. It doesn't impact your final score. All the experimental sections are "real sections" in the sense that these were actual experimental sections from an official LSAT. It's better to take a 4 section LSAT when you do full PTs so that you can learn the endurance needed for the full exam. Otherwise, you're better off taking single sections timed.

    The typing thing is glitching out for me too by the way.

    PT's are not really meant to develop/lessen your confidence. It is more so a tool to observe your strengths and weaknesses to adjust your studying plans. Just check the curve for that PT and add points based on the experimental if it is important you see the other score; but, treat a PT as a PRACTICE test. There's no benefit in raising/lowering your score as it is not an option on test day. When I learned this, it really helped me study better.
