How hard is PT 123?
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 123's curve is stricter than 99% of the new-format PrepTests, so expect a higher raw score than usual, not a higher LSAT score.

About PrepTest 123
Which section of PT 123 is experimental?
Section 1 (Reading Comprehension) is the experimental section on PrepTest 123. 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 77 scored questions.
When is PT 123 from?
Most of PrepTest 123 was first given in June 2007. LSAC rebuilt it from two older tests, with no logic games: Sections 2–4 from the June 2007 PrepTest and Section 1 from PrepTest 41 (October 2003).
