Try doing a PT 6 days out and review it the next day. taking a 2 day break in the middle really helps. You can drill a hard RC passage, a few LR and a game or two the day before the test but try finishing it by afternoon and take the rest of the day off.

Podcast Summary:
They believe every variant (with one exception) will be a curve of -8
The one exception is the combo of Orwell/Maple Trees LR + Newspaper LG which they believe will be -9
Curve is the # of Qs you can miss and hit 170. May 2020 curve was -9.
How accurate have these been in the past?
Surprisingly accurate. A major reason for this accuracy is that LSAC doest vary their curves too much. -9 is probably one their most generous ones.
Its normal to assume the worst. Your mind tends to only recollect the questions you had a hard time with. I took the International flex in October and Instantly knew I bombed it. My tutor told me its a normal feeling that all her students have but they always score around the average of their last 4practice tests. I ended up scoring my average and so did the others I spoke to(Also thought they bombed their test)

ayee I'm retaking too, these international times are killer (6:30pm is gonna be hell). Good luck!
Best of luck! Lemme us know how it goes
Is anyone taking the test outside the US or Canada? Was hoping to create a discussion thread for Tuesday (Obeying all 7sage and Lsac rules ofc)
Quit all your open apps(Not just close), Terminate all the stuff running in the background, Close all your browsers but the one you'll be taking the test on.
Hey I scored in the early 160s in Oct but am now PTing around a 170. Id be happy to help

bruh, try games 60+. I thought i had the games down until I started doing 60s, 70s next. I want to get through all the sections before the Jan LSAT. The hard games become significantly harder. I don't know if its the novelty, or something else, but don't waste your time on the first 50. If you're getting -2 and you can maintain that throughout the newer PTs, I think you're doing fine...
Games from the 60s onwards are actually considered easier. Games is the one section where the difficulty has more or less remained the same or decreased.
If you're scoring in the 150s I definitely wouldn't recommend taking 2Pts a week. You should be concentrating on drilling your weak areas and solidifying your basics. Try taking a week off and trying doing only the basics for a week. This really helps you get a fresh perspective. Also try a different tutor. A different approach can make all the difference sometimes.

According to the LSAC, it's going to be only the 16th and 17th (lower test taker volume, don't need as many days).
I don't think it's been announced yet. They usually do it around 3 weeks prior to test day.
Hey. I live in India so the time difference should be alright. Id be interested!
Interested!

Does anyone have any links with the actual confirmation?
I emailed them and they responded with a confirmation
@yushankuo33594 LSAC confirmed that the scores they released by mistake are correct. The same was said my Dave Kiloran of Powerscore.
@yushankuo33594 Were the scores on par with your PT average? How did you find the curve?
Correct me if I am wrong but if there is a loss of connection or any interruption we won't be losing time from the section this time right? @mbe1030966 @mamrajmahboob968 Im so sorry you had this experience.

I am going to take the exam on the morning of the 8th. Just a general question: Does every person who takes the exam take the same exam? It seems to me from reading the comment threads that they may rearrange the order of the sections, but are all the sections collectively the same exam? I'm a little confused.
I don't think everyone takes the same exam. The RC and LR were differerent yesterday
I would recommend @sakethsaran1998111 for sure. He's taken the LSAT himself recently and can relate with your issues for sure
I was having a bad run of scores on RC right before test day and luckily a friend recommended Albert. He could relate to all my problems and knew what exactly I had to change. He showed me how he approaches passages which made me realize the errors I have be making. His strategies for RC questions are extremely efficient and easy to comprehend. I would highly recommend Albert to anyone looking for a tutor.
I would highly encourage you to postpone and give yourself more time. You can improve a lot by finishing the full course. My scores started to increase after 1-2 months of taking practice sets after I finished the entire course.
Is it just me or did anyone find the RC on 79 way harder than usual? Is this a trend that continues to the 80s?
Hey guys, Can anyone PTing in the 170s help me craft a study plan for the last month. I have all my PT trends well mapped on the analytics section.
Thank you in advance
I feel this "high scoring bubble" will deflate since an experimental section is being added. But according to Spivey the medians of most schools will be increasing by a point or two for sure.
