I'd say not focus on anything you present to the admissions board as something that would pigeonhole you. Just look to be a hard working, no excuses, good candidate. Leave all that other stuff out because depending upon the person reading it.. they may sound like a lot of excuses. Best of luck.

lol

I think I am on the other end of the spectrum where I am terrified I did horribly so the last thing I want to do is see my score.

I go back and forth between this feeling and wanting to just end the agony. I don't even know who I am right now.

I know (3. Mine is still not grey so who knows.(/p)

Sami I can relate.... trying so hard to hold it together at my office right now...

Louisiana Accommodated Test Taker here! SOOOOOO glad to be done with that exam, I had to trek through snow to take the exam, and being in the coastal south that was (to put it quite plainly) WACKY!! That being said, I felt solid on this exam... much much different than the September exam when I was given a large print booklet and wasn't supposed to have that. Timing went well all things considered when you think about going into an exam like that at noon and maintaining consistent stamina until 7pm that night. Sections: 3 LR 1 RC 1 AR. The games were not complex but I felt fuzzy on putting my rules into play because that section was DEAD LAST. I was getting fatigued. My writing portion was like "I care not about this hogwash." I feel a little slighted because all of the extremely hard LR Q's I'd drilled on didn't show themselves, even out of 3 rounds. I guess I never approached the Q's like LSAT Trainer identified them by % of chance they'd show, but just rather drilling on past exams for the past 4 months. It was a good exam. I'm glad that me and the LSAT are officially seeing other people. ;)

One of the accommodated testers announced that she should have requested 100% additional time instead of the 50% additional time....like it was as easy as fetching Skittles down the hallway.

What I remember: Finishing section 5 and then proctor comes to collect the exam booklet and I was clinging to it like Jack did with the door after the Titanic sank. "Wait, that's it?! We're done?" (- everyone in room glaring at me, I had crushed down a Redbull during the break... I could see sounds.(/p)

I will say that I took the exam with accommodations and the Q responses that people left on the official sept lsat thread are the same ones I experienced. I tested the same day as the regular exam, just a different room with other accommodated exam takers. Yes, I had all 5 sections, they ceased cutting out the experimental section roughly a year ago I was told by the accommodations department personnel. Hey... fairs fair... I don't want to be babied just because I have ADHD. I'm alright with suffering just like the standard test taker through all 5.

Accommodation: Large exam booklet and alternative answer sheet

I WILL give a word of caution that I wish I had known about... unless you are almost legally blind, do NOT request the large print exam booklet OR the alternate answer sheet for that matter!!!!!!!! My doctor had notated that in his evaluation of the evidence of need form, so yeah you know I indicated that elsewhere on my accommodations requests. There is only 2 "example" pages of what that large book looks like on the LSAC website, and they show the logical reasoning section... so on it's own you think "okay that may be helpful, why not!" The kicker is when you get to the AR or RC sections and it was not something I could have ever prepared myself to face having no example of the layout. I estimated the booklet to be composed of side by side11x17 page size sheets, spiral bound. Imagine your AR game setup being on the far left hand side of an 11x17 sheet (put 2 letter size sheets of paper right next to each other, that's 11x17) and your questions begin roughly 2-3 letter size sheets away. Also you have to turn these massive pages back and forth to answer all the questions that pertain to either the passage for RC or the game rules for AR, the sheets are floppy and literally act like a sail as you frantically flip them. And no... you can't rip the pages out the book. I got to that point with tears in my eyes and was politely reminded by the proctor that it needed to remain intact. I nodded and soldiered on. I just want to get this out there and if JY can help me somehow let other accommodated testers be aware of this situation, then at least they will be prepared on if this larger booklet is indeed the accommodation they want to request. There is nothing on the internet that I could find after I came out the exam on this large print book and if anyone else had the same experience.

I am retaking the exam in December with a REGULAR SIZE BOOKLET and the good ole' scantron.

Are you sure?
