Better to take used, more recent tests or old, new tests?Hi. I took the LSAT a year ago, and to study for that I took almost all of the recent prep tests. Now with only a few weeks left I am deciding whe…
Probably the main difference between "new" and "old" is the addition of comparative passages in RC. The free June 2007 is the beginning of such change. So anything PT's starting with Pt 52 (in addition to June 2007) has the comparative reading. -

Which is harder: New LSATs (60+) vs old LSATs (35-50s)Do you guys know or think that the new LSATs are harder than the old ones?
