Incidentally, I also had three LR sections, which was what I was hoping for. Call me nuts, but LR is my favorite section.

Had same setup. Pretty confident that the first LR section was exp.
Do either of you remember any of the subjects in the first LR? I'm trying to drink and forget about it but the more I drink the more neurotic I get...

I just remember that the first LR had a 2 q stems for one stim. That made me think it was an exp.

Yeah the two question stem was about doctors...but that's the only question I can remember for sure from LR1

2 stem 1 stim q's haven't happened in a long time, so I'm guessing based on that.

Mine are DELUSIONAL
I made the mistake of taking it at the same location as June, only because it's super close and 8:30 is already pushing it for me. But they are idiots.
As soon as I walked in, they tried to tell me I could wear a jacket. One of them starts crinkling wrappers and eating candy in the middle of section 4. They were CONSTANTLY whispering amongst each other, and not quietly either. It was super annoying.

I have 3 LRs, but I did not have a two question stem question. West coast test taker. Could there have been different experimental LRs? Someone on Reddit mentioned a Dinosaur and pizza at home question, and I didn't have those either.

I'm on the west coast and I remember pizzeria and dinosaur bones but not a two-question stem.

ETA: I had 3 LRs.

He was really nice, except he was WAY more nervous than any of the test takers. Seemed like his first time managing the proctoring of an exam. He kept going in the room, out of the room, in the room, out of the room - more than six times! The door clanked loudly each time. There was another proctor in our room and he kept talking to the other proctor: "Are things going OK?" "Do you need anything?" "Do you need any water?" And then he started pacing around the room. And then he started shuffling a box of papers - emptying out the contents and rifling through envelopes. What gives?!?? I was stuck on game 3 right when he decided it was time to chat it up with a 3rd proctor who also wandered into the room. It was just too much and made me lose focus during critical moments when I should have been speeding through the test. I just think he doesn't understand how much of a high stakes this test is, otherwise he would have just sit down, said the directions, and shut up : /

I swear there's like a delay with the onset of fatigue. Starting to finally feel mentally drain about ~1.5 hours after.

Took the exam at Northwestern and I have no complaints. I wouldn't be surprised if there was another TLSer in my room, as for the most part it seemed people knew what they were doing.

You can have the same experimental type as another test taker without having the same exact section/question set for your experimental.

Maybe? That seems like one of those stimuli that I instantly forget after answer the question lol

Anyone who did not have LR as their experimental: Do you remember an ancient Asian artifacts coming from a gold mine question?

Hated mine during the 4th section. Otherwise I liked them. They let people go to the bathroom before the test started since we had to sit around for a while. Were nice overall too. Only problem was in section 4, two of them whispered silently to eachother and made me re-read the first 5-10 LR a few times. I still dont know if I got them correct because of that annoyance. I had to tell them to stop whispering.
