Official December LSAT Discussion Thread

castinghallpublicity

The other (closed) thread called the copper tool/canoe LR question experimental. That was definitely real.

There was also one about an ancient fish with fingers, if that hasn’t been mentioned yet.

can anyone confirm if LR section with a question about 7pm and 6pm was real?

I'm assuming so because otherwise my test was 102 questions total.

Yes, the experimental had 26 questions. I had three LR and my order went: LR25 (real), RC, LR26 (not sure if real or fake, I believe it ended with a weaken question), BREAK, LR26 (not sure if real or fake), LG

Trying to recall other questions, but my brain is fried. LR RC LR LR LG - second LR section ended with a question about PTSD, stress, and cortisol levels and another about Planet 256 (or something). Was that one real or experimental?

Experimental

Thank god...was definitely the worst of the three, not at all helped by the fact the proctor never called a 5 minute warning. Thought to myself "this has been a really long 10 minutes..." (since that was the time last I checked my watch) as I was bubbling in the PTSD one, and then the timer went off.

I don't think the curve will be great since we can't pinpoint anything that was too challenging:(

Purely anecdote, but I've heard a lot of complaints about the LG section.

LG is normally my best section, and I was totally lost this time around for some reason - ended up randomly bubbling in something like 10-12 questions for that, which if I recall, is even worse than the cold take I did back in June.

How many LR sections did you have?

LSAT Student

I only had 2 LR. One of the questions was about using someone elses wifi.

Was the LR section with the whistleblower question real or experimental? The one about punishing those who reveal politicians

I only had 2 LR and I don't remember that one. Do you remember any more?

@TryingToDoBetter17 Yeah the cleaning floors one was hard! One of the rules was really strange

I completely agree about the cleaning floors game.

LR2 had questions about T. rex and vacuum for uncarpeted floor.

T Rex question made me kinda laugh

I believe that was on my second LR of three-- a section with 26 questions. I cannot remember if the Indian spice question was on that one or not, but the Indian spice question is apparently real.

blah blah

Anyone have a LR question about increasing rain and less hot days.

I had three LR sections and my brain is so fried that I can't remember which questions came in which section... :c

Does anyone remember whether the apartment LG game and the voting and zoning commission question were part of the same section?

Yeah had this one as well. Maybe I was fried by this point but all I am going to say is WTF about that one

vanillamochi

Anybody remember if the fish fingers question was in the same section as the curry question?

Was the LR question about raises prices by $0.25 on a real or experimental part?

There was a question comparing two cities and their temperatures. I believe it was a resolve question in what was for me the first 26-question LR of a test that had two 26-question sections and three LR dections, the first one being real and on 25

I totally skipped this question. This question is a definite time sink.

Not sure if they were in the same section, but I got both those questions.

ym2553

Anyone remember whether the Lake Sassafras question was real? At the very end of one of the LRs?

LSAT Student-1

I had two LG sections and one game was about movies..anyone remember if that was part of the real section?

Definitely had question comparing two cities and temperature. The one in question was about humidity being the cause, i guess that's experimental. Thanks!

Hey does anyone remember an LR question about vacuums? Was that LR section experimental or real (I remember the section having 26 questions)?

Yes! I had a vacuums question and only 2 LR sections.

My early curve prediction: -11 -to -13. Significantly harder LG than September, easier RC (I still get upset when I hear the word candor), and comparable LR. I believe LG is the main driver of the curve.

Someone please help!!! Was the LR question about a movie review where it asked what phrase the second speaker misinterpreted real???

I think LG s going to be the main driver of the curve too, but honestly it wasn't as bad as some of the really wacko mid 70s LGs. My greatest fear is that there won't be much of a curve at all.

What's the average? 10? Think it will be that. I found RC and LR to be easier than Sept's. LG was definitely harder but not as hard or unorthodox as the game with buildings being traded and shit.

What types of LGs were there?

The LG felt very similar to PrepTest 68, in my opinion. The LR actually felt a little harder on this one. I believe 68 had a -12

I had two LG

1st LG = Some things must close, some must be open [removed]
2nd LG = Voting committee versus Zoning Committee

RC was about Chinese Language, Multiverse, Law as it applied to Comedians and Chefs, and Social Darwinism

Which LG was real?!

1st. I had one LG section with that one

@"Dillon A. Wright" can confirm Copper Tools and Canoes LR was real (from post on real/experimental). Had experimental LG and that was definitely in my LR.

RC LR LG LR LR was the test I received. Awesome w/less RC

sn11_________

IMO LR didn't feel too hard and RC wasn't that bad (except the 4th about CPG and social darwinism passage had one question that stumped me). LG was definitely toughest section for me and tougher than Sept. Overall I felt like this test was easier than Sept test (based off of taking that as a PT a week ago)

@jsfollower said:

The one where like if one group reached a quorum, it would be at 7 and if the other did, it would be at 6? Yes definitely that was real.

tiffwallacexo

had three LRs, i remember one was hard... it had 26 questions and a question about an ancient greek charachter reading a tablet that asked to reject one of the statements? Was that experimental?

xtinextine

I had LR RC LR LR LG

Freaking LR drained me. I thought RC was a lot better than September but I was mentally stuck on the last two LGs and had to guess basically most of the floor game. I realized I could have done something more efficient with my board but it was too late.

All the LR is mushed together in my mind so I have no idea in what sections they we're but...

• I had LR on PTSD
• LR Planet 256
• LR copper tools
• LR on tornados (this wasn't included on the master post)
• LR on goddamn lichens (this wasn't included on the master post)

According to the RC, there must be a universe where I actually scored what I wanted.

I had 2 LR.

My experimental was games.

Can second the ancient fish with fingers LR question! only had 2 LR sections so I know it was real.

I remember LR on sensing tornados so that was real! don't remember LR on lichens so that might have been experimental.
