Was the 26 question LR section real?

Congrats! Now the hard part that no one ever thinks about: There's no where to go from here but down. Taking that next PT after a 180 can be rough, but don't let it bother you. Just do what you always do. Learn from your mistakes so that you don't repeat them on the next one. That's the process that got you to this 180; that's the process that'll get you through to July.

Really good advice. It's definitely motivating, though. I took two practice tests since then and got a 171 on both of them. I need to stabilize my games and RC a bit more.

Congrats, that's incredible! Any insights into what went well on this PT and what got you there? Taking the real deal on Monday haha @ kommst du aus Deutschland oder? es ist möglich, dass ich die Prüfung einmal in München machen muss.

Like I mentioned, I think I just believed in my instincts more on this test and went on auto-pilot. I was listening to the LSAT Proctor script before the test, and I remember telling myself "Have faith in your technique and preparation." I have a bad habit of consciously overthinking the test, but this time I just reacted to what was in front of me almost subconsciously.

Thats awesome! Congrats! Which one did you take?

I took PrepTest 52. Honestly, I think I got a tad lucky because it suited my strengths: medium difficulty LR/RC and easy games. Still, I felt very comfortable and in control throughout the test.

First 180 on a practice test!

I took the June 2017 Official Test and got a 154. Sine then, I studied like a madman and then I got a 164 on the March 2019 Official Test. So, after almost two years of intensive prep, this 180 feels pretty sweet. I'll be taking the July test soon.

The biggest difference between this practice test and any other test I've taken was me trusting my instincts and almost being on auto-pilot throughout the entire test. I was very rarely consciously thinking while taking this test, but I was mostly just reacting to the questions presented in front of me.
