How hard is PT 141?
Its questions are harder 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 141's curve is more forgiving than 91% of the new-format PrepTests, so expect a lower raw score than usual, not a lower LSAT score.

About PrepTest 141
Which section of PT 141 is experimental?
Section 3 (Reading Comprehension) is the experimental section on PrepTest 141. 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 141 from?
Most of PrepTest 141 was first given in September 2014. LSAC rebuilt it from two older tests, with no logic games: Sections 1, 2 and 4 from PrepTest 73 (September 2014) and Section 3 from PrepTest 70 (October 2013).
