Official Dec. LSAT Discussion

Admin's note: Thread hijacking! I'm turning this thread into the Official Dec. LSAT Discussion. Here's some ground rules, taken from my usual sticky:

We know that everyone will be excited to discuss what was on the December '15 LSAT, but mentioning specifics about the test (e.g., "Question 4 was odd" or "I got B for question 6" or "the 3rd LG was sequencing") can get both us and you in a lot of trouble with LSAC.

Saying that the test was hard/easy without going into detail is okay, but anything more specific is not okay. LSAC monitors this forum.

One exception is you can say which section was the experimental. For example, the LG with "flowers" was experimental. That's okay.

TL;DR: PLEASE don't talk specifics about December's LSAT!

Have fun discussing!

So far we've found out:
Real RC - 27 Questions:
– Gender Studies/Women in Rome
– Black National Theater
– Corporate Crime/Punishment
– Lamarack Theory

Real LG - 23 Questions:
– Concerts
– Pottery
– Office
– Committees

Real LR - 25 & 26 Questions:
– Waste Management
– Dolphins/Elephants
– Amber
– Ships in the Ocean
– Lemurs
– Psychic Girl
– Honeybees
– Vaccine X
– Gold Mines

---------------------------------

@dj768083724's original post:

Going to go with LR with question about elephant seals and dolphins experimental.

(Read Dillon's post and think this should be ok to say, sorry in advance if it is not)

    I only had 2 LR sections. One was the one you mentioned. The other one said something about a waste to energy plant. Unless of course this was the same one as the knee you mentioned lol

    It's okay to say that that is the experimental section lol

    So dolphin elephant one was one and then the other one I can't recall. It was my second section and I just can't remember :(
  • joannewujoannewu Member

    I had 2 LRs and the dolphin elephant one was one of them

    But I'm thinking one of my LGs was an experimental- are we allowed to talk about this?
  • kennedybjkennedybj Alum Member
    697 karma
    @joannewu yes it's allowed. The real LG section with pottery bowls

    Can't believe energy plant was the first one. Took me three minutes.
  • kennedybjkennedybj Alum Member

    @mimimimi I was surprised as well
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member
    340 karma
    I am curious as to what you guys feel was the relative difficulty of each section as compared to recent prep-tests? Like, do you think the LR was "easy"? The RC? LG? Or do you all think it was pretty standard?
  • joannewujoannewu Member
    53 karma
    @kennedybj ahh i'm blanking. What other questions were in that section??

    I just imagine an LSAC official standing behind us, "that's a paddlin".

    For my LG experimental people's I had offices and choices

    LR wasn't bad. RC last Passage was rough for me. I think we can all agree that LG#3 was a joke? I cannot think of any clever ways to solve it. Brutal force is just a little better than guessing if you have enough time.
    Admin note: No specifics, please!
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member

    Joanne, not everyone gets the same type of section as the experimental. I got 2 Logic games sections, but some people didn't. If you get two LG sections, one must be experimental. Other people who only got one LG section only got the "real one." So that was the one that counts, the other one doesn't.
  • lalafiggylalafiggy Free Trial Member

    Noo the LR experimental was so easy I was hoping it would count D:
  • joannewujoannewu Member
    53 karma
    @splitterhopeful yeah I had 2 LG sections too so I'm just trying to figure out how kennedybj is sure that XWYZ was the experimental one.
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member
    340 karma
    For some reason it seems like the experimental sections are always the easier one. You'd think it would be the other way around.
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member
    340 karma
    I had pretty much the same reactions as you, mimi. I'm hoping the one game that people are complaining about makes for a gentler curve.
  • lalafiggylalafiggy Free Trial Member

    I only had one LG and it had XYWZ so it was not experimental. Definitely one of the harder LGs I've seen...... ssiiiIIIiiiGGGgghhhhh
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member

    wxyz was NOT experimental.

    SOB. how many questions did that one have, anyone remember?
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member

    5 is what someone said in another thread. I seem to remember there not being many.

    I think I only guessed on 1 question in that section. It wasn't too terrible, just time consuming
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member
    340 karma
    Time consuming for me, too... as in, I would've needed more than 35 minutes. >.<
  • kaytheehkaytheeh Member

    So for those who got 3 LRs, which one was the experimental?
  • splitterhopefulsplitterhopeful Alum Member
    edited December 2015 340 karma
    I didn't get 3 LR's. I remember questions about dolphins/seals, wastewater treatment plant or something like that, politician campaign contributions, bees...
  • kaytheehkaytheeh Member
    132 karma
    @splitterhopeful ah! Then I think it's the first one because the q stems were "of its own kind"
  • JessabelleJessabelle Alum Member

    I thought the real RC was easier than the experimental one... Lamarck and Black theatre were the real one

    Was the chef comedian one experimental?

    Must've been, I had nothing about a chef comedian.

    does anyone know how many questions were in the last game of the real LG section?
  • dj768083724dj768083724 Alum Member
    112 karma
    I tried to think of some clever way to respond to how many questions I got since I likely got the real LG and then realized wtf LSAC the deed is done. Let's us suffer together

    25 q LR was real... One of the 26s wasn't if you got the 26 26 25 LR

    There was one LR that was really easy, was that experimental?
  • mss2fcmss2fc Member

    Game 3 was really difficult. I ended up guessing all the answers.
  • zotter14zotter14 Free Trial Member

    had an LR-RC-LR-LR-LG test. I'm trying to figure out which LR was experimental. Does anyone remember something about lemurs? What about dino nostrils/ocean vessels?

    So pissed off because it was generally smooth sailing until I got to LG. Game 3 had no chill, guessed on all 5. Game 4 was also meh.

    I'm guessing at least a -12 curve.
  • Yasinkhan107Yasinkhan107 Member

    Zotter14 I had the same as you. Did you find one of the LRs to be particularly easy?
  • zotter14zotter14 Free Trial Member
    65 karma
    Yes, the one before LG (3rd LR) was somewhat easier compared to the other two. It was 26 questions. I really hope the first LR was experimental, found it ridiculously difficult right off the bat.
  • Dylan TaylorDylan Taylor Alum Member

    Also had the same. Found the first section hard for LR. Usually the first 10 are easier
