A huge concern is that raw scores sometimes do not translate to a scaled score of 170, i.e. you either get a 169 or a 171 for a certain raw score. From what I've seen, the October test has the highest incidence of this.

through reading various sources online it looks to me like LSAC is very protective of stuff like the LSAT curve. I doubt they allow such information to circulate. I think that it's fair to say, as others have hinted at, that nobody has a clue what the curve will be, other than guesses based on years past.

Doesn't the curve depend on how people actually did? So this info couldn't be know yet?

Tests are pre-equated, based on the performance of previous takers on experimental sections. Sabotaging the guy next to you won't help your score.

It's like these people have never been on a conference call with Daniel Bernstine.

Amateur hour.

Alright, enough. The LSAT isn't curved; it's scaled. And an LSAT where a -9 is scaled to 170 is not "harder" than an LSAT where a -14 is scaled to 170.

Even if we knew the "curve" in advance (which of course we don't), it should have no impact on your decision whether to sit for that particular test, and it should have no impact on your approach to taking the test. Stop being stupid.

Also unlikely. Although there's a better than even chance that the curve for the October 2015 LSAT will be -9, there's a less than 10% chance that it will be -8. It's much more likely to be -10 than -8.

You were wrong. Probably like usual.

What do you mean? He was spot on.
