How hard is PT 112?

Its questions are easier than most, and the curve makes up for it. LSAC sets each test's curve so a score means the same thing on every test: the harder the questions, the more you can miss for the same score. PT 112's curve is stricter than 83% of the new-format PrepTests, so expect a higher raw score than usual, not a higher LSAT score.

About PrepTest 112

Which section of PT 112 is experimental?

Section 4 (Logical Reasoning) is the experimental section on PrepTest 112. It's unscored: it's there so the test has four sections, like the real LSAT, but it doesn't count toward your score. The other three sections make up the 78 scored questions.

When is PT 112 from?

Most of PrepTest 112 was first given in December 2001. LSAC rebuilt it from two older tests, with no logic games: Sections 1–3 from PrepTest 36 (December 2001) and Section 4 from PrepTest 30 (December 1999).
