  Why wouldn't it be wise to review them? Experimental sections from the 3 digit format are graded sections taken from actual exams.

  You will not know which section is experimental when taking the test

  Can't see how it would be a waste. If the experimental section were on a topic that was unrelated say for example a scored section on the basics of chemistry, that would be a waste. You know just by looking at the LSAC website that the official exam won't include the basics of chemistry. But because the experimental section is on a topic you will be tested on, wouldn't you want as much practice and understanding as possible?

  You should review them, because they were originally real administered sections and they will still be a good source of information about (1) your weaknesses and (2) the repeating patterns of the test.

  Besides what others have already mentioned, I want to reaffirm the importance of building stamina. In reality there is a notable difference in taking 3 sections vs 4. The more you get used to taking the latter, the better you would be prepared for the actual exam.
