June 2016 - Waiter's (+170 or bust) GRAY DAY HAS AWOKEN FROM ITS SLUMBER Forum

[sluggla]

Well well well! Hello fellow waiters!

LR LG LR LR LC here.

As has been previously stated, one LR was madness. The rest of the test pretty standard IMO. Hoping the hard LR was experimental. (Movie producers was last Q.) Glad the storm didnt hit Miami!!

WOMP!!!!

Glad to see someone agrees with my assessment.

Any two LR people have movie producers?

Had a bitchin hard "match my fuck up" Q right before. Took up the whole damn page with its bullshit.

This.

quality of testing center is definitely causally correlated with prestige of the institution.

eh I took at a TTT and TT and both were pretty solid, not sure if either beats the other by a whole lot if at all

I'm taking the September test at a university 2.5 hours away from me to avoid taking it at a for-profit law school.

you sir(or ma'am) are crazy, props for the dedication, but crazy

to be fair people have said that it's a terrible testing center. one person said that phones went of multiple times because of a flood warning and the proctors didn't even do anything. I'm trying to dodge that at ALL costs!!!

edit: I'm getting a hotel so it's not like I'm driving 2.5 hours on test day

ah hotel, good idea, thats not so bad then, just adds $ to it but much better than a 2.5 hr drive lol tho a flood warning isnt a common problem but if reviews say bad, then fair enough

Anyone with 2 LRs recall a reasoning question with Ellie enjoying chemistry classes? It was on my third LR.

I had three LR's and I don't remember this question.

Christ. There are definitely two experimental LRs then. What about a question about 300/5000 people answering a survey?

I had this and I had two LR.

Dude quality of school has almost nothing to do with how the test is going to go, lol. It matters way more which specific room it's in and the proctors you have. Also others' recent reviews of the place (which it looks like your place has, so good idea then).

Agreed.. I had a friend who took it where I did and he said it wasn't a good experience because of the proctor. But I had a great proctor, and the 2 other ladies helping her were really nice as well.

[R. Jeeves]

you guys should collectively complain to LSAC. trying finding others through TLS, Reddit, etc.

But only if you think it really screwed you. An investigation will hold up scores being released and if something is founded then you either get a free retake (without learning your score) or else you just suck it up and take the score you got today.

this sucks dick.

it sucks major dick. also, glad that the universe brought us together Jeevesy so I could confirm this madness the second I got home.......... ugh

yeah thank fuck youre here.

how do you think you did on the test though?

my main dilemma is that there was a shit easy LG and the parts of the test that i didnt rush on due to our shitbrain proctor's timing I actually felt pretty good about. I cant really say if ill actually do better on a properly timed retake.

LR-LG-LR-LR-RC

LR is my favorite section, so the test wasn't as stressful as the one I took five years ago. I didn't think the games were any harder than usual; although that's my weakest section and I ran out of time; guessing on 4.

With the exception of a few questions in the tokens, I didn't think RC was too tough. Although I changed an answer to CFC at the last minute and am regretting it now. Should have stuck to my guns.

No major complaints about the proctors; although they were crazy intense.

[Mikey]

This is real.

YO HOW'D IT GO!?!?!

[Keilz]

Repeating for anyone out there- anyone with two LRs get a barking birds question? That they barked or whatever due to their predators?

It was one of two 26 question section for me

I mean I was exaggerating when I said this but I definitely think it's much more likely that you're gonna have a bad experience at a TTT than a top 50 university is all I'm saying. after all, higher ranking universities are more likely to have way nicer facilities.

Ok cool do you remember any other Qs from that section? That way we can identify the section and figure out if it was experimental. Hoping it was- it wasn't like insane but there some weird phrasing of question stems.

Edit- just realized it's probably real since it was your only 26 :'-(

I had the African Weaver RC and this Movie Producers LR (the one about new technology), and understand the African Weaver to be an Experimental RC.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[etramak]

Looks like I had the fake RC followed by real RC. Fake RC went swimmingly, as did the rest of the test. The same can't be said for real RC. My mind went blank after I realized I wasn't ocmprehending anything during the cuneiform passage. Left a bunch of those blank and couldn't finish the last passage because I wasted so much time on the cuneiform one.

Will have to cancel this one unfortunately. Sucks because the test overall I think was pretty straightforward. I don't know what you guys think but to me the LR was easier than usual except for a couple questions (partknisons strengthening)

Oh yeah that one was weird. That's the section I'm hoping was experimental

[mackoftexas]

This test went amazingly better for me this time around. I had a great test layout LG-LR-RC-break-RC-LR and finished all sections with time. The only one I felt kind of worried on was the end of the 2nd RC. I'm confident I did better and I wasn't stressed at all. Good luck to everyone else and be sure to not view this thread too much as it seems to be hazardous for your health.

Ah shit. I didn't remember to write down how many Q's were in each one. But yeah I had the barking birds Q too. There was another one with a question about Chinese as a written language allowing diverse dialects to communicate.

For all of you talking about proctoring being worse at bad schools: I took the test today at a not-so-good college in NJ and had impeccable proctoring during the test, though we checked in late.

I was at brookdale community college and it was great! Way better than seton hall when I took it there

Don't think I had that one- that was a different section? :'(

oh totally missed this one, yeah the TTT i took at was a very nice building with some pretty nifty gadgets in the rooms, the TT room was real nice but the building itself was not as nice as the TTT

eta: not saying this proves anything, just dont see a facility-tier correlation

[Mikey]

This is real.

YO HOW'D IT GO!?!?!

Mikey everyone but you got three LR sections, need you to confirm real ones

A real one had voters over 50 (this was my 5th section). Tbh, I can't really remember my 2nd LR section because my mind was getting fucked by 2 RC sections lmao, sorry. If I remember one of the questions from my other LR, I will definitely let you guys know.
