I just finished at 1 pm today.

LR- Questions in the 20s were super long, I had to guess on a few which was super frustrating

RC- Jazz, volcanoes, bike trails, comparative IP law

LG- I don't remember the first 2, engineers, grants

LR was seriously so hard and it's usually my best section. I had to guess on questions and I've never had to do that in practice. The last 6 or so questions were all a paragraph in length (if I remember correctly), and each answer choice was a paragraph. I couldn't get to everything in time which really psyched me out for the first passage of my next section, RC. My first passage was the jazz one that everyone is talking about. Did anyone have the volcano passage? I thought it was really difficult because I had never heard of any of the terms or places before. The only medium to easy passage I felt like was the the cyclist/park one. Logic games were okay, but the third and fourth ones used game boards I wasn't very familiar with and I've taken dozens of prep tests. Overall, I am SCARED. It was harder than the October and November tests in my opinion. I'm trying to get off waitlists, and I'm wondering if a lower score would hurt my chances or be neutral?

Hoping for the best for everyone.

I think we had the same test. I have never been so discouraged in my life. The third and fourth LG games were insane. I flew through the first two with extra time to spare, saw the third and said nope and went to fourth.... the fourth game was just as bad for me. I usually perform the best in LG and i’m sure that was my absolute worst section. Half of it was guesses. RC is usually my worst but I feel like I did better in that than any other section.

In regards to your question, I don’t think law schools typically look at all of your scores...only the highest score. I wouldn’t be worried that a lower score would hurt your chances because they look at the highest score submitted from my understanding.

Hi Hannah! I read your other post and I agree, it sounds like we had the exact same test. I definitely can relate to how your feeling. It really sucks to have been studying for so long and then test day brings challenges we've never seen before. I really hope most people who took this version feel the same way as us so we get a decent sized curve. Thank you for responding about the waitlist situation! I really hope you're right. (:

I too flew through the first two games and did the exact same thing as you! I read over the third and skipped to the fourth and had the same trouble. I'm usually pting about -4 for LG so this is a real worry for me. Personally, LR seemed a bit more difficult than most prep tests I've taken and compared to the October and November tests. I flew through the beginning, just like LG, but got caught up at the end. Do you remember a lot of lengthy questions at the end? I agree with you about RC, it wasn't extremely difficult or anything, but I know I got in my head because LR had me in a panic at the end.

I'm sorry you had a bad test day too! It's comforting to know I'm not the only one though. (:

Hi! What do you mean by "game boards" when you talk about LG? What were they like?

Hey! I had the engineer and grant games that people have mentioned. I don't know how to describe it without giving too much away, but they weren't basic and definitely had twists. The grant one especially got me, I don't even know what it would be called if I was allowed to tell you. They also had rules I hadn't practiced with a lot. But the two other games weren't difficult for me!

The last part of LR was seriously so hard and it's usually my best section. I had to guess on questions and I've never had to do that in practice. The last 6 or so questions were all a paragraph in length (if I remember correctly), and each answer choice was multiple+ lines long. I couldn't get to everything in time which really psyched me out for the first passage of my next section, RC. My first passage was the jazz one that everyone is talking about. The only easy-medium passage I felt like was the the cyclist/park one. Logic games were okay, but the third and fourth ones used game boards I wasn't very familiar with and I've taken dozens of prep tests. Overall, I am SCARED.
