-15 curve almost guaranteed
Because there are 102 questions, were there 102 last December? If there are 101 and the curve is -14 to get to 170, you will need to add 1 to make it equal. I don't think they will do this though, since the extra question benefits the test taker. The curve will therefore need to be set at -15 to stop scores from degenerating too quickly, that is my logic behind it. So, -15 it is

The reasoning above assumes which of the following:anonymiB wrote:Because there are 102 questions, were there 102 last December?

(a). That every test taker will get the "extra" question wrong.
(b). That the other 101 questions were of similar difficulty to the test from last December.
(c). All of the above.

lol at this thread... good luck to all you waiting. Now I realize what the painful wait for the LSAT score is good for: prep for the painful wait for law exam grades.

Lol absolutely not guaranteed, but it wouldn't suprise me. -13 or -14 is what I believe it will be.

I guarantee something between -12 and -15.

Re: -15 curve almost guaranteed
With -14 you would need to score 88/102, is that correct? Or does it start at 100?Attorney wrote:I guarantee something between -12 and -15.

Jesus I want the score to be released this week. I'm just about convinced they will be released on Thursday.
