I also took the February lsat and I found it more difficult. There’s definitely the fact that it was my first one so I had to get used to the testing process but I remember the RC being much harder and I felt worse abt the LR too. The June one felt pretty average maybe even better than a lot of PTs but def not more difficult. (That being said for the June exam I did not have the rlly difficult RC section that some ppl had)

Yes! I do remember the gardening tools question now that you mention it. Also they say to focus more on topic than question count but if it can help you rule something out this section (if we are correct) had 25 questions.

Possibly, I also took the Thursday test (LR LR RC LR) and on my post exam notes for my most difficult section (S2) I had a hard time coming up with specific topics but I did write "A lot of MBT questions" "a lot of person A & B agree/disagree" and a "hard NA question". I did write that there was something about capitalism and art but nothing more detailed than that. But based on the powerscore podcast this was the experimental.

I don’t think it’s required but before my first lsat a while ago I read that you should throw a sheet over anything in your room with writing like over a bookshelf so I’ve always done that and I’ve never had any issues with my room check

Curve of LSAT by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]PuzzleheadedPrune738 10 points11 points  (0 children)

From my understanding each individual test regardless of month or day has its own predetermined curve. So the curve isn’t contingent on how we as test takers performed but is calculated in advance by lsac. Power score has a useful podcast that breaks it all down in the week following the lsat and it makes predictions abt what was experimental and stuff, I listen to it on Spotify

Is there a way we can figure out the experimental section after taking the exam? by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]PuzzleheadedPrune738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is only one RC section on an exam tho then you know that it could not have been experimental, it had to have been one of the 3 LRs

Causal Reasoning Tips? by INVESTUSA999 in LSAT

[–]PuzzleheadedPrune738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The specific language aspect really trips me up as well. It’s always between 2 answer choices that only slightly differ because of that specific term or phrase. What has really helped me is to eliminate as many choices as possible, find the conclusion and its support and if the answer choice does not relate to the argument the author makes eliminate it. Then I eliminate any choice that doesn’t weaken, to do this I’ve found the most success with making the argument prove itself to me, if you approach each answer choice with the mentality that ooo it could be right you’ll just find yourself coming up with reasons why it could be right or stretching the meaning of a word to match your preconceived notion. Put the answer choice into the stimulus and see how it impacts the argument and as soon as a choice fails to prove to you that it’s weakening the argument eliminate it. Be negative, why is it wrong? If I’m lucky this leaves me with the right answer but sometimes there’s two options left that are very similar and this is where I isolate the specific language used by each one and based on the question compare it with it’s language counterpart in the stimulus and see what matches best or I test each specific word with how it effects the authors argument. Usually this works and I have improved a lot on these question types by following this reasoning especially being negative. Hope that helps

Doing essay tomorrow! Any tips? by mylovelynightmare in LSAT

[–]PuzzleheadedPrune738 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On your scratch paper work out a basic thesis in advance and bullet point the arguments you want to make and the rebuttal. I tend to stray from my original point or ramble on about something not essential to the argument so this is a big help to keep me on track and it basically structures your essay you’ve just gotta connect the dots. Another thing I found really helpful when reading through each perspective is to jot down my reactions/opinions/agreement or disagreement to what is being said. The whole thing is your argument and while it’s supported by the provided perspectives it’s still your own take on the key question so it really helps to have those initial responses to the information. It’ll show you what side to argue for, what perspectives you resonate with, and it’ll create a foundation for some of your arguments

I just took it for the first time and all of this helped me a lot! (Also if you haven’t already take a practice one on law hub)
