I had LR LG LR RC LR and my experimental was the first section since im sure that the iron/magnet question was the first question of my 3rd section. The first question of my 1st section was definitely a "resolve the apparent discrepancy" type of question and also had 26 questions. So Im pretty sure at least some people with the LR LG LR RC LR format still had an experimental section 1.

They probably just flipped section 1 and 3 around. So yeah, that makes sense.

It seems that a high proportion of people had an LR as an experimental section. There also seems to be a few people who had the LG. But where are the experimental RC people? New Chinese American dialect?

Apparently so. The RC section I had contained passages about honeybee dances, Western Australia law issues, some Mexican improv theatre thing, and I can't remember the topic of the other passage.

Had experimental RC. It sucked. The only two passages I've been able to remember are Chinatown dialect and Vermeer forgeries.

I had RC experimental. I was hoping that it would be experimental, I remember having a few questions that made me go WTF? Especially in the chinese dialect passage. I wasn't really sure what the hell the author's point was. Then I got to LG and I was seriously hoping that one was experimental... alas, it wasn't. The real RC was pretty easy though.

I had RC experimental, but no Chinese. I only remember one section: it was about photographers using vintage techniques to give their work character.

Wasn't there one in there about African oral writing format? It may have been in my last PT however, my brain is fried...

No idea what you guys are talking about on the experimental RC... The only passage I really remember from mine was about Adam Smith's pin factory theory. For the life of me I can't remember the other 3. I do remember that the comparative passages part was the easiest I can recall ever seeing.

Seems like there were a few experimental RC sections then.

I actually found the experimental to be easier than the actual. I had my final RC last, and there was one (or maybe two) ambiguous questions in the Contingency Fee reading (at least I thought so.) Honey bees were easy... Theatre group was easy.... but I actually found the New Urbanism to be slightly difficult. There was a question (and I will keep this vague) about what the "new urbanists" could reasonably infer about the "suburban sprawlers."

I had no idea what the answer was.

Don't worry. I had this experimental RC as well. It also had four right answers on one of the questions in the Mexican ballad passage.... lol. I'm pretty sure they forgot the "except" in the question stem.

Yep, that was the last passage.

*New Urbanists
*Austrailia law
*bees
*Mexican theatre

^^These were the passages on the real RC, without a doubt. In a different order, but you get the point.

Ah, yeah, corridos. I don't recall there being any questions with more than one correct answer, though... Not that it matters to us anyway

I'm pretty certain that the "guitar string physics teacher/bus driver traffic violation" experimental LR section had 26 questions. That's the section I had as Section 3.

This is getting strange, because I had the bus driver traffic violation, but not the guitar string physics teacher on a LR of 26

from reading the prior posts, some of my lr sections were flipped from others (if i'm not misremembering). also, my test went LR, LR, LG, RC, LR.... and some folks are referencing lr questions I do not remember. Maybe i'm blocking them, but seems to me there may have been more than one version of the experimental lr sections. The first LR was sooo hard, I was thinking, OMG... I am having a total block! Second and last LR were about average.

2 LR sections in a row? First I've heard about this form of the test. You sure?

I had a question about a bus driver that didn't want to get in trouble, if that's the one you're talking about... I only had 2 LR

Pretty sure... two LR in a row. I was praying that the third section wasn't RC because I was DYING... was relieved to see LG, then RC, then LR.

Who else is bummed that the second LR is experimental? Definitely my best section. And by "best" I mean "least bad."

I hope my first of 3 LR was real and the second was not...I think i might have been just mentally fresh or something because I zoomed through that thing with little difficulty....could be a bad thing
