@vanessadfisher628 Both Dalhousie and Windsor (Dual) program does not have a character limit, if you were still wondering which Canadian schools do not have a limit. That being said, I think it is still important to write concisely

Agreed! This is what I keep telling myself. I'm also telling myself how tomorrow will just be another one of my PTs I have been doing for months, except I am just writing in a different location! Nothing special, nothing new. Just another PT with some other people around me and someone other than my proctor app calling out 5 minutes.

Yeah I think I'll just stick with 1. I'm just over-thinking it!

Bringing more than one watch

Can we bring more than 1 watch on test day?

I am putting a new battery in my analog watch but just to be SUPER cautious... haha can we bring more than one? Does anyone know?

I predict 3 regular games and 1 "weird" game. As long as we push through the first 3 and you have time left over to account for the "weirdness" of a game, a "hard" LG section should be doable. At least in my experience in previous practice PTs.

Are those two PTs you took (75 & 77) the only recent PTs you have taken? I find that once I switched over to more recent PTs (around PT 70+) there is a slight shift in LR wording/difficulty.

Overall, don't stress! You have a good average and scores can fluctuate. Some tests play to our weaknesses. It could be beneficial to go back to those PTs and see if you are getting any LR questions wrong that have similar components (such as conditional reasoning, formal logic, causality, etc). Maybe a quick review of fundamental concepts will help in addition to drilling LR? Good luck!

I'm wondering if I hadn't heard how hard it is and then just took PT 81, if my score would be different. Either way, agreed! It was pretty tough.

PT 81 RC

So I just took PT 81.. Overall got 166! Pretty happy. I have been PT-ing between 167-173. So a small drop but not that bad :)

Got -6 on RC which is lower than what I usually score. Considering all the RC stories about this PT I was expecting to do worse. But still not super happy it went down. Also the experimental I added for this PT was also an RC (took both RCs back to back for endurance) and on the experimental (older RC) I got -2

For those of you who have taken PT 81, what are your thoughts on why and how RC was (by consensus) more difficult than other RC sections? Just wondering how I should go about analyzing my work in BR of this RC section (to learn the most from this RC section! Who knows PT 82 might also have a similar RC..)

Depends on when you're taking the LSAT (how far away you are from your test date as well as how many PTs you can realistically take without burning out (burn out is oh so real). So I'd suggest to plan backwards and that way you can figure out how many sections you need for drills.

Yes untimed is a great way to improve as well!

@rileymajeunefagan676 I'll do that! Thank you :) does it matter which PT I pull the RC passages from? like should I do -20 and save 35+ for the actual full PT?

I've had similar experiences with being frustrated when I need to "brute force" some games/questions.

What I always do is pay attention to fixed variables/boxes (depending on the type of game). I find that most answers will centre around these. Since floaters are (often) interchangeable - when I am doing a question that I must brute force, I try to look to my "fixed" game pieces or big box, etc.

Drill RC sections by themselves, 35 min each. Once you see your scores improving there, you'll feel more confident during a full PT. Also, I know it sounds cheesy, but if you try to get interested in the topics of each passages, I find I always do better when I am engaged. I remind myself before every RC passage that I am about to learn 4 new mini topics (this way RC feels less daunting)

Font Size - Actual Test

Just wondering if the font size of the actual test is the same as when I print 7sage PTs?

The font size of the 7sage PTs are slightly smaller than the font on PTs from official LSAC books/resources (as least in my opinion).

Anyone have any insight on this? Thanks!

I'm pretty nervous as well! What really helps calm me down is constantly reminding myself that Saturday's exam will eventually become just another released practice PT that some other person in the future will be using for a drill/a practice PT. I know it common sense but it helps me calm down.

Good luck!
