If J.Y. took a new LSAT, would he get a 180?

I feel since J.Y. has drawn out detailed explanations of almost every LSAT question in existence, that he, if anyone, would stand the best chance at getting a perfect score on new tests. But what do you all think?
Would he?

Tough to say. I think getting a 180 is a combination of luck and skill. He definitely has a better chance than most
I suspect JY hovers in the high 170's. He's not in shape; he has no reason to be in peak condition. Given a month or two to get into form, he'd 180 it all day every day.

This is how I picture J.Y.

I think no matter how good someone is at this test, getting a 180 still involves some type of luck so idk.
I think JY would get a 180 or close. The man, the myth, the legend, understands this test on such a deep level. Like @"Cant Get Right" said, he may* need to get back into test taking "shape," but I know if he did that he could score a 180 on a new test.
180s probably do have some component of luck for most, but I truly believe that there are people like JY and other LSAT professionals who have been studying this test for so long that the luck factor becomes increasingly small.
Does anyone know what he got on the LSAT he took to get into Harvard?
I want to say a 173, but I'm not 100% sure where I saw that.
I for one have complete, unbridled faith in our fearless leader. Shame on the dissenters. :P
duh. I have no doubt he would score a 180.
Yes.
Teachers are smarter than students because not only do they have to learn the material to teach it but master it to explain it.
We should study like we will be teaching the test.
@akistotle thats how I pictured him before @"Cant Get Right" called him fat!
He said so himself on a thread in this forum. His understanding now, after years of teaching and analyzing the test at the granular level, is certainly far greater than when he took the test. I would venture to say that he would probably score a 180 around 60-70% of the time and probably a 178 or 179 the other 30-40% of the time (everyone is going to make a mistake or two once in a while)

Yes!!! I knew I read that somewhere.
Thank you, Akistotle!
I think he would get 180 because of his test-taking skills; the low-hanging fruit theory,etc.
Yes
JY wouldn't get a 180. He would get a 181
Just watched J.Y. take PT 81. He got two wrong on one LR section, which would have given him a 178. Anyone can make a mistake or two from time to time.
