Did anyone else find the November LSAT to be extremely hard?

I took the LSAT on November 9th, and literally had a mental breakdown halfway through the RC section. I felt prepared going into the exam, but it was way harder than I thought it would be. Did anyone else have this experience? I'm so scared to get my score back

    I thought it was crazy hard, too, but I think it may have been the sheer volume of the work. Looking back at the practice exams, it was the same level of difficulty but, for me, I realized the shift from the diversity of the past exams (containing Logic Games), to working rampantly on the volume of 2 reading comp and 2 LR was more of an endurance issue... Don't be scared of getting the score back. Just remember that it's not too late to take it again in January, especially now that you know what your weaknesses were on test day!

    I was constantly PTing in 169-175 range and don't think I got anywhere near that. It could be a first time test taker issue but I found the test way harder than the 80s which people say are the difficult test sections

    I totally feel you on this. The RC that I had was crazy. I felt that my "real" LRs weren't too bad but I am pretty torn up and discouraged by the RC I had.

    Fucking brutal. I PT low 170's and I feel like I didn't even clear 165

    RC was hard I guessed on the last question which doesnt normally happen for me. One of the LRs was SO tough, another one okay, and my last one was easy

    I'm glad I'm not alone, it was extremely hard. Harder than any PT I've ever taken....
    It was my first time and unfortunately probably not the last....
    We shall see on 11/27 ...
    Best of luck !

    I've been scoring in the high 160s- low 170s range and thought it was really hard too. Especially the first LR section and the RC section. The other two LR sections were okay in my opinion. My Proproctor also kept crashing so I had to re log in 3 times during the exam and do the whole security scan again. Took an extra 2 hours and 3 mental breakdowns.

    The very first section for the November LSAT, an LR section, was discernibly more difficult than any other part of the test. I consciously noticed this, in retrospect, while making my way through the remaining three sections. I strongly suspect that the initial section was the unscored experimental one, and the remaining three sections were the scored part of the test.
