(If this post violates rules on test disclosure, sorry and delete it!)
So - took the LSAT in April, and one of my games was grouping with binary sub groups - U or V. Now, my handwriting is atrocious, and I took like an extra minute just to make sure my Us didn’t looks like my Vs. I more or less had to re-do like 1/2 of the questions because I couldn’t tell if my mostly-angled curves were a U or a V.
From my recollection, earlier PTs did this fairly regularly, but more recent ones have generally gone for more visually distinct variables. Anyway, I wasn’t really prepared for it, and I should have been. (Assuming my LSAT used older LGs, but I could be totally wrong on that one). Does anyone else have this problem??
I’m also curious about everyone else’s thoughts … the argument could be made that being able to write clearly is important enough that it’s a legit part of the test, or we could argue that they could have tested logic without testing penmanship by going with U and P, for instance.
… okay I’ll be honest, I’m mostly just annoyed and slightly bored, so I figured I’d complain, hahah. Good luck to everyone taking the June test!
Hurt your brain. Seriously - do deep dives into the questions that you miss and just be relentless about it. Examine every word until you give yourself a headache - master the ones that you miss perfectly. Then save em, and every few weeks retake all of your old misses in a new practice set.
