how do i grade myself when I take PT's?

this is definitely a silly question but I'm so confused on how to score myself when I take PT's - I am taking the April 2022 LSAT, so there will be 3 scored sections and 1 unscored section. When I am taking practice tests, do I count my correct answers from ALL 4 sections and then look at the score conversion chart here: https://7sage.com/lesson/how-to-understand-your-lsat-score/?ss_completed_lesson=9449

... or do I just count my correct answers from 3 sections? if that's the case, then what score conversion chart do I look at? how do i know which section is the unscored section? really unsure how to get a sense of how I'm scoring :/

    The scores from your practice tests and from your real tests should be about the same. I have heard this from other users; in addition, I have taken 2 actual tests and these scores were reflective of my practice scores.

    Hi there,

    If you take PrepTests 90, 91, or 92 on our site, only 3 sections will be scored. The fourth variable experimental section is automatically excluded from your score.

    However, If you take any other PrepTest on our site, all 4 sections will be scored. If you wish, you can estimate your score with only 3 sections by using our Flex Score Converter on this page: https://7sage.com/lsat-flex-score-converter/

    It is based on having the same raw to scaled conversion table but scored as though there was only one LR section (one half of the usual amount) with the raw score scaled up to account for the reduction in the number of questions. Because no one outside of LSAC knows how the scoring will actually be done, this is just an educated guess.

    Please also note that the score conversion table varies from LSAT to LSAT. You can see the score conversion table for the full PrepTests on this page: https://7sage.com/lsat-score-percentile-conversion/

    I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions.
