What kind of pen souvenirs are we talking about here, lol?

Also, sounds like you had a great experience. Having the time on the side sounds pretty convenient!

They let us keep the pens that we used for the actual test. It had a pen on one end and the stylus for the tablet on the other end, so you had to keep flipping it around the whole time. I kept thinking I would accidentally scratch the tablet with the pen! They say "Digital LSAT" on them. Anyway, the better souvenir was the $100 gift card :smile:

I took it in FL and felt kind of ambivalent about it. I don't like dealing with pencil sharpening and worrying about taking time to bubble answers, so it was really nice to have that relief. I also never really erase on LG because it's faster just to scratch stuff out, so I was happy using a pen. They also gave us the pens as a souvenir (lol). And I never annotate on RC so that wasn't an issue for me. It was cool to be able to flag answers to go back to and click on the different question numbers instead of having to flip through a book. Also nice to see the exact time left on the screen and not have the auditory interruption for 5 minutes left (the warning just popped up instead). Our only technical malfunction was with the keyboards for the writing sample. Some of the keys on mine wouldn't work, but they got me a different one and it was fine.

Edit: The major drawback for me was that it felt harder to comprehend and focus on the RC passages. I think there's some research out there that it's harder to retain information when reading on a screen vs paper.

Has anyone confirmed whether the Digital LSAT will have new questions, or recycled ones from old tests?

I got a 177 a little before 10! Time to sleep now. That 5+ hours of waiting was exhausting.

During the Digital LSAT I had a chocolate chip Cliff bar and chugged a bottle of Honest peach iced tea. Think I'm sticking with that for the real thing.

Are you sure?
