Hello everyone. I am taking the LSAT in september. As far as i understand those who have accommodations do not write the experimental section. but yet in my accommodation sheet it says the following:
After Section 1, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 2, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 3, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 4, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 5, Break(s) for X minutes
so i asked LSAC if this mistake. and they said no.
they even said the following :
There are 5 multiple-choices sections and 1 writing sample section with breaks between each section
does anyone have any thoughts on this
Comments
I was referring to the Writing being the 6th.
Count me in on a Pep Rally for you! We will make it happen no matter what:)
Hi Mr. Lopez or anyone who has taken the LSAT after the September 2016 so called policy change. Do extra break between section test takers have to take the experimental section?
Can someone please let me know if this:
After Section 1, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 2, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 3, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 4, Break(s) for X minutes
After Section 5, Break(s) for X minutes
includes the experimental and the writing sample is separate; or is the 5th section the writing sample?
@lemyxo,
Yeah, unfortunately the policy was changed and now students with accommodations have to take 5 sections and the writing sample. In other words, they have to take the experimental. This means the test is going to be quite long for students with accomodations.
This change was kind of controversial. I remember @"Dillon A. Wright" making a post about it, which is why I remember.
wow... that makes no sense and so controversial. do they get their own room/proctor at least?
sorry to be out of the know, but I don't know what this special accommodations thing is. Can someone explain why some people get this version of the test and don't have to take the experimental section? Or that they get extra breaks?
This doesn't seem very fair to others, but I have no idea what qualifies one for this
I had the extra time this June and took the experimental plus everything else that everyone else take. I don't see it as fair to only have 5 total sections including WS if everyone else has 6.
This is very old. Most everyone has to take the experimental now. Locking this.
