It was a Strengthen question; the stimulus also included the idea of sufficient/necessary (not sure I can go into much more detail than that). I don't remember anything about the parents' responsibilities to their children, but I had 3 LRs.
I only really remember the ones that tripped me up.
Did anyone remember one of the LR questions that was like "which is the LEAST likely to be disproved/rejected/something like that"? Please say that was experimental bc I've never seen a question like that
yea this one was weird and I stalled on it! I had 3 LR sections so I couldn't tell you.
Important Distinction. There were 2 tests with the same format but different Q#s.
LR25, RC, LR25, LR26, LG
AND
LR25, RC, LR26, LR26, LG
If you had two LR26s then the 3rd section was experimental.
If you had two LR25 then the 1st section was experimental.
I keep asking about this one but did anyone else get tripped up by 3rd LG real game? I literally brute forced my way through. Something about the language (this one is closing this one is not) and then it being switched around in the questions really confused me and it's giving me nightmares post test.
It might not be any help, because I also had 3 LR, but I don't remember this at all. I had LR(25) - RC - LR(25) - LR(26) - LG as my break down.
I had 3 LR in this order: LR, RC, LR LR LG. i wish i could remember the kinds of questions from the first LR because I felt least comfortable on that one. I remember thinking that the reading comprehension was enjoyable and interesting, all of it! The logic games first two felt ok, the rest felt reminiscent of older logic games and more complicated.
mcgl yeah just remembering that one you mentioned, at first i thought hey this is not so bad, i got this, but then i got a bit confused further into it. I really did not like the fourth game though
2LR 1LG 2RC Real LG Four destinations/Station shut downs/Floor Cleaning/etc. Real RC was the first one.
Yes. The 3rd game on the real LGs was insanely confusing for me. First I wrote one of the rules incorrectly, which was really distracting. Then when I got to the questions, I didn't notice that the open/close attributes were switched in most of the questions. Spent the rest of my time trying to go back and fix it and had to guess on the 4th game.
I don't wanna violate rules going into specifics but it was crucial you know your "not both" rules. Like writing them on your board visually (e.g. A/B) rather than just writing the rule out.
Yeah, I think this was key. Being able to accurately visualize not-both. I think just the wording on it was confusing at times and was easy to mix things up.
Haha - right after the test I could not remember most of it but now that there was discussion it jogged my memory.
Except for the freaking dolphins and Greek tablet - those are burned into my brain. I've never been so flabbergasted at simply reading a question. I'm sure when I'm not exhausted they'll make sense at least, but in the moment I thought I might have been losing my mind because they seemed so nonsensical.
So no matter what, the 2nd LR for everyone with this format was real, right??
If you had two 26 LRs, then the 2nd LR (3rd section) will be experimental.
gotcha thanks!
That was experimental. My experimental was "which is LEAST like the reasoning above?" So that was an interesting take on a parallel reasoning question... I wish that experimental LR counted though. It was so obviously easy compared to the other two. This test's LR was pretty tough.
I think they are talking about another question. It wasn’t parallel. The stem was like “which of the following is least likely to be rejected based on the reasoning above?” Or something like that. It was like a MSS question in disguise or something. I remember reading that stem and thinking “wtf?” But I can not remember the topic at all.
This was not the Greek play one, was it?

Haha I have no clue, I don't even remember a Greek play question
my poor memory of this test just doesn't work rn.
Ohhhhhhhhh, yeah! The Greek one was kind of like a "MSS/CBF" type thing haha. That one was real!
Yup. This is my biggest fear is getting minus 4 on this game alone because I mixed it up. I worked it through and got answers for each Q, but never really felt on top of the game setup and rules. ?
It was a MBF question, I think? Actually you know what, I have no idea lol. I gotta stop worrying about how I did...God help me please.
Right?! Why do we care so much, we can't change our answers. Our scores are already set in stone. There is no point in worrying, and yet here we are!
Set in stone? Or etched in a Greek Tablet
The LR section with the mayor race question as #1 and I believe something about canoes later on near the end was real right?
Did anybody else have as much trouble with the apartment game as I did? I felt like the other three were fine (which now I’m anxious was because I somehome completely missed something) but the apartment game threw me off so badly! I had no idea how to solve it
tablet question sucked up like 3 mins for me and I still ended up guessing LMAO
t rex was a pain in the ass too
I've heard from many people that the 8 piece apartment game was tricky. So youre definitely not alone.
That makes me nervous tho because I found it pretty straightforward, so I scared that I overlooked a detail or made an incorrect inference along the way!!
Oh well, no point obsessing, we'll find out in 3 weeks....
The countdown is nerve wrecking.
I’m sure you did fine. Every game is clearly solvable, you probably just caught onto a reference I was just not seeing.
I agree there’s definitely no point obsessing..... still having trouble turning it off though, ugh. This is the worst.
How has it only been five days since we sat? Feels like five weeks

Welcome to 2017! Where the days feel like weeks and no one's a winner.
Does anyone remember how many substitution / equivalence questions were on the real LG section? I had two LG sections, so my memory is a bit spacey between the two! Thanks
2 on the real
Wait oh my god is this true because I swear to God that I had a LR 25 LR 25 LR 26 and I'm a US taker because of this is true then I did really well on this test if this is not true I was contemplating canceling but I'm certain that like one of the questions listed in the real LR 25 was in my first 25 and that the MLR 26 had all the other 26 questions that been confirmed
I thought I only had 25 but then I saw all the reports about 26 so I assumed I just must've been mistaken I don't normally count how many answers are in a section so it wouldn't surprise me that you know I was wrong but I swear there was 25
I had 2 LR25 and I couldve sworn I saw the mayoral question in the first LR section. Are you sure this is definitive?
I was wondering the same thing.
I had two LR26s (LR25, RC, LR26, LR26, LG) and I am pretty sure I had the Tilapia question in the 3rd section—the second LR section.
I feel like I had "real questions" in all section BUT my first section was "very heavy" on point at disagreement questions.
My 2LR which was S3 and 25 did have a "leaSt like" which I thought was weird. But I've seen that as a "real"
At this point I'm not cancelling as there's way too good of a chance i really hit it out of the park if on the 25-25-26 LR test the 3rd was real and it's worth rolling the dice to see if it's true.
Maybe the LSAC did something unusual this test. I've never seen reported questions vary so dramatically. Even reports of "real games" appearing over 2 sections. I'm sure it's just false memory but man this test seems to have a lot of reports of oddities
@westcoastbestcoast I too felt the Mayorial was in the first. But feel the 5/18 was in the third and the BW also being in the third and there's another "real" in positive I saw in the first. Obviously I must be wrong but... man!
@stepharizona @westcoastbestcoast I mean what is stopping them from mixing the order the two 25's were in. For instance -
25(1) - RC - 25(2) - 26 - LG
25(2) - RC - 25(1) - 26 - LG
This might explain for some of the confusion. I gave up in Sept on trying to figure out which section was real, and I didn't even try this time for the same reason. In the end there were 2 real LR, 1 real LG and 1 real RC. Nothing is stopping the LSAC from playing with order of the test though.
That Greek play question was a total burnout for me. I'm sure when I see the answer I'll be able to rationalize it...but I literally sat there thinking...what dumbass made this one up?! ;(
I think it was the experimental. My experimental section was RC and I'm sure I did not have this question in either of my LR sections
I had only 2 LR sections...and I did see the greek tablet question in one of my LR's.
It was like whether people in Greek plays typically read off their tablet, I think, don't know if that ring any bells for you.
Ditto.
Louisiana Accommodated Test Taker here! SOOOOOO glad to be done with that exam, I had to trek through snow to take the exam, and being in the coastal south that was (to put it quite plainly) WACKY!! That being said, I felt solid on this exam... much much different than the September exam when I was given a large print booklet and wasn't supposed to have that. Timing went well all things considered when you think about going into an exam like that at noon and maintaining consistent stamina until 7pm that night. Sections: 3 LR 1 RC 1 AR. The games were not complex but I felt fuzzy on putting my rules into play because that section was DEAD LAST. I was getting fatigued. My writing portion was like "I care not about this hogwash." I feel a little slighted because all of the extremely hard LR Q's I'd drilled on didn't show themselves, even out of 3 rounds. I guess I never approached the Q's like LSAT Trainer identified them by % of chance they'd show, but just rather drilling on past exams for the past 4 months. It was a good exam. I'm glad that me and the LSAT are officially seeing other people.
Definitely not experimental. There’s a topic that got un-stickied that has our determination of experimental vs real questions, you could search for that. But unfortunately, the Greek tablet was 100% real.
Is this game at all like anything else anyone has seen? Was this one of those rare 15 minute games or were there some game changing inferences? I only had about 5 minutes to dedicate to this.
Agreed, anyone know if this is real or experimental?
