Also does anyone know how HYS in reality views multuiple LSAT score. Harvard's website used to say the highest one but they recently changed it to saying it is holistic like all the other law schools but what does holistic mean in pratice?

Does unpaid work count as work experience or is that volunteering/ service?

Regrets of not cancelling. I am now growing more concerned by the second thanks to the RC uncertainty. Does anyone still feel uncertain about RC or regret not cancelling?

I've seen people talk about a -8 curve. On average a 155 is roughly 65 correct. What do you guys think people would have to get right to get the same score with this curve?

I dont think it has ever been -8. I think the conensus is closer to -10 or -11 depending on the RC since RC appears to have been brutal. The curve changes tend to only effect the upper most portion of the distribution so its probably roughly the same for the situation you posted. In recent years the curve has mainly affected the right most distribution the most

Does anyone else now think they may have done poorly on LR -- like a lot of random careless mistakes somewhere in the middle where the questions were hard but you think you pulled some "stupid" move

Maybe I made a lot of careless mistakes but I found the LR to be easier than average but at the same time the last 3 PrepTests I have found LR to be easier than usual so it may just be me. I don't recall anything new on the LR though

Games wa a return to normalcy but a wasted chance for me.

RC -------> I found it harder than those published lists of hardest RC passages of all times.

General consensus seems harder to gather with everyone focused on RC and LG

Did anyone understand the child inference inner thoughts one from RC.? What is the general consensus on LR because it seems like through different forums RC was brutal and LG was easy (sigh, why did I not understand the first game intially and wasted 5 mins and guessed 2 on on the last game) . Did people find LR average or closer to the hard side?

Just curious but did anyone actually understand the second passage on inner thought or inferences or found some of the questions easy? From hindsight after a night's sleep all I remember was I did 3-4 questions first round then moved on to the next two passages and then came back at 32 mins to do the last few questions but had no idea and now I don't think I got the 3-4questions I did the first time around correct since I dont even know the passage. No idea what I did when I answered the 3-4 questions. Were there easy questions that didnt require understanding?

June LSAT 2017 LR

How did people find this section? It seemed pretty smooth but not enough to compensate from the hardest RC ever

Still have no idea what it is (the water thing) but at least the passage was structually easy to understand. I think the last 2 questions were hard though. At first I thought it was the science passage but maybe the inner thoughts one was the science passage? None of them were really science heavy though

I feel like now the last passage on court judges may have had a lot of trap answers even though the passage themselves were easy. Actually I still don't fully understand what Passage B wanted fully :P

Is it just me or does everyone else have no idea what your RC score is. I typically average -5 over the last 2 weeks. Before then was -7,-8 really consistently and the highest being -10 but right now I have no clue For me it could be anywhere from -5 to -13 :(

Before then was -7,-8 really consistently and the highest being -10 but right now I have no clue with that inner thoughts passage that ruined my entire RC, coupled with a few tricky Jazz + Trial Court questions. For me it could be anywhere from -5 to -13 :(

Some comments on other forums seem to indicate LR may have been harder than normal but I found it pretty doable and standard without any of the usual really abstract LR questions.

RC was teribble. One section I have no idea what the score would be. I need a lot of luck now.

Did anyone else find RC harder than all other PrepTests? So much harder than 80 and 78.

I threw away the games, guessed two on the last game and guessed one on the FIRST game.

Not sure but LR seemed "easy" compared to other one for the two real sections. LR was the only saving grace unless I have like chains of careless mistakes.

Wtf happened. MY actual LSAT score was the same as one I started intense prep and 6-8 points lower than my last 3 Prep Tests before the Real LSAT exam. How the hell did my LR score drop so much. Does anyone know how schools will view a sudden improvement in September?

USA is still relatively open for lawyers. If you think about it other countries impose citizenship requirements to practice as a lawyer , especailly if you want to argue in front of a judge

I disagree you are more likley to be hired as an international student from larger firms that have the resources to sponsor you than small middle size firm. Also, there are changes coming to the US labor visas and there is also the TN-Visa route.

It seems like the more I think the worse it gets. Now I recall that during the test there was one section with 23 questions and the next section was like 26 questions but when I did Q25 on the latter section I bubbled in the 23 question section Q25 and it was during the last few mins I noticed Q25 was blank on the actual section and that's when I see Q25 was bubbled on the wrong section! fingers cross i didn't make the same mistake of wrong section elsewhere or, even worse, somehow screwed up the numbering ordering but somehow ended up with the total amount of questions for each section...

Ugh RC could be the difference between the 170s and 150s that's how uncertain I am ? We got this guys, if anything I found test day and prep to be a fun to stay home for two months straight and just hit the books like in the undergrad days (c/o 2016 ?). So worst case we have a chance at a better score and schools. Best case we tell that chance to F off ?

I feel you in the difference. Worse come to worse I loose 5 points on both LR and Games so -15 so a 86 raw but even then with my worse case RC can still have a huge impact where my best RC is -4 , average is -6 , worst is -10 but I feel like I did beyond worst on the actual one

I tended to average on the last few PrepTests -2.5 for LR, -3.25? for LG, and -6 on RC to a total raw score of 87. LR was probably a bit lower for the last two Prp Test averaging at around a bit above -2 so maybe -4 for both LR sections.

Everyday I have an odd sense of being let off and "I survived" even though I also really want to know my score. I guess it is denial still on how I may have screwed up big time with RC. Does anyone know what the average difference tends to be between your last few PTs and the actual LSAT?

Confirm action

Are you sure?
