curve is dependent on the test itself, so if the LSAC gave tests throughout of equivalent difficulty then the curve would be the same but impossible to say
@joegotbored-1 excellent point. That's what I was just noticing. Familiarity with the questions should help with recognizing the main pattern for each difficulty level. Hope this works. Thanks for posting
As part of your law school application, a majority of schools allow you to write a one-page addendum describing a specific difficulty you had with your test taking process; in your example your father's situation.
With everything said, I would be careful on the newer tests, especially of the PT 70+. The difficulty of the questions have been spread out so now it's very possible to see one of the toughest questions of the section early on say #12 or something.
@LSATman1 Cambridge packets are sets of questions from PTs 1-38 (I think) organized by question type and difficulty. They are used for question type drilling/practice. I'm personally about to start using them for practicing with difficult questions.
* iOS app - iPhone 6 and 6+ support
* iOS app - has PT 72, 73, and 74 logic games included
* iOS app - Logic Games screen now includes tags and section difficulty.
* iOS app - Bug fix: Grader PrepTest filtering works properly
About the 'difficulty' rating, how is it calculated? ... responses where the 4/5 difficulty split is about 58% (ignoring ... skipped questions actually made the difficulty system consistent) but I haven ...
@bwrc1992 Same here! i had three LR sections it felt the same way... my section one was bruuuutal, and the 2nd and 3rd one was more familiar in terms of following the pattern of how usual preptests follow in terms of difficulty.
You may also want to consider the Cambridge LG Packets. I believe they have one that uses all game from PT 1-38, organized by type and difficulty. In your case, it seems it'd be helpful to be able to focus in on certain types. Just my two cents.
Ooo to Nilesh's point.. I didn't have the Ultimate package so I definitely wanted additional practice. The Cambridge materials are also ordered by difficulty, which was the most important selling point for me.
