some 30s LG sections have some nasty games incl pattern games. may be the trend continues till 40. but i did the 45 LG section recently and that was one of the easiest lg i did.

anyone else taking 73 tomorrow?

edit;; is it dumb for me to take 76 close to my real lsat? I took it in October and its my closest thing to a fresh PT

I'm in on this thread, although I'm rather late. I also want to make a small contribution to the 180 page goal because I personally feel like that would be good luck for all of us. I also wanted to share that I bought the 4 most recent PTs from LSAC because I didn't have any from the 70s, including 77 without realizing that they'd even have that option. Fuck it, maybe I'll get it a few days early

Taking pts in the morning is always your best bet, since the actual test will be in the morning anyways

Yes you can buy it on the LSAC website for $10

Never posted my PT 72 results:

RC: -4 (-2 BR) (That was a hard section!)
LR: -12 (-10 BR)
LG: -1 (-0 BR)

167/171

I'm frustrated because I got a 167 in October so I don't feel like I've made much progress. But I am feeling more confident about games -- I had a very good day in October and I was concerned it was a fluke, because I had never gone -1 on an LG section until test day. But I've been pretty consistent in LG for my PTs since October.

I'm going to hit the Manhattan LR book hard this week.

Good luck on 74

Did 2nd take LR of PT76 again yesterday and RC/LG today morning to get the BR results.

PT 76:
LR1 -5 (!!)

LR2 -2
LG -2
RC -7 (!!)
167

BR:
LR1 -4

LR2 -1
LG -0
RC -2
175

so i find the LR in this PT quite different than the other ones that i have done, e.g. PT75 and PT 72. some questions seem very vague esp in lr1.
q16 about % of respondents/legislature from right to wrong during BR
q21 the parallel flaw about humans in australia
q25 about wilke and wilke

RC seemed very easy but i still managed to miss -7 and -3 on the last passage alone, which seems very easy now.

LG that 3rd game took me 13 mins when doing it today for BR. i didn't get any strong inferences and basically brute forced.

very disappointed that i couldn't do well on a pt that wasn't particularly hard and had a esp not difficult RC. i don't know why i still keep missing so much even on an easy RC. that last passage couldn't be easier (felt it was much much easier than P3 in PT72 about equipoise) and i think i had about 8 mins going into it, but still couldn't get to the last question.
