Yeah, MC. No one ever pulled it off successfully in all his years of teaching.

I mean, you encounter one question where you can't differentiate wrong from right and you risk every other incorrect answer if you happen to get it right. May as well have gone for the correct answers.

My strategy would be to take the test as normal, but mark all the ones that I can obviously eliminate. Then, when there are inevitably a few questions I'm not sure on, see if for all of them I can definitely choose one that I know for sure is wrong.

Weigh the pros and cons. If I answer normally, I can only get a B? Then just pick all the ones I eliminated. Double check for accuracy. MC questions are generally are formatted with 1 really, really stupid answer choice, 1 right one, 1 trap one, and 1 wrong one. If you can't even identify the stupid/wrong ones, then you were failing that class anyway.

It's been a long time, but I'm sure there were no gimmies. The questions were all fact-based dealing with dates, events, textual language and identification, etc., with equally viable answer choices (X, X+1, X+2). The more you know, the less it's worth risking the points; the less you know, the less likely it is that your guesses will net you 100% incorrect.

If a single uncertainty can lower your grade, the only scenario I can imagine it being worthwhile is one where you know every correct answer and are therefore able to avoid it, but in that case you might as well have answered them correctly.

What are the possibilities of the scores coming out today? Anyone has any clues?

See poll.

74.36% scores are out today. I have personally developed a highly sophisticated algorithm for anticipating LSAT score release dates, trust me this number is as accurate as you can get.

First there was bow hunting. Then rifle hunting. Well, now there's a new type of deer hunting...

Haha! That's great JW!

That seems like a pretty high possibility. I'm getting nervous!

18% per the poll, but there is only a 28% chance of that.

This episode was boring as fuck. I would've tuned out if weren't for Claudia's grandma. Such a bad bitch.

So many boring as fuck episodes recently. But I feel obligated to watch anyways. Like making the obligatory phone call to the friend you stopped having anything in common with 10 years ago every few months. You have to stay in touch because it would be rude not to.

Eh, it'll most likely be on the 2nd, but I am hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

Until then, I'll be debating what to do for New Years: Gulf Shores, Memphis, Baton Rouge, or stay home.

Come to Vegas! I'll be there with one of my partners. That sounds weird: I'll be there with one of my business partners.

We're not doing it like Cassidy did TLS last night, though. Running a race New Year's Eve so that might be boring to everyone here.

I can't imagine Memphis being a great place to spend NYE in, but that's just my experience with that city.

Now, Vegas would be a winner! However, the other places I mentioned are relatively free on my part, so....

I feel the same way. They need to just get to whenever these bitches all went to an island together and pulled each others hair asap.

This is true. Plus, I went not that long ago.

I took one of the earlier lsat administration and can no longer find the PDF version of the test on my account. Anyone experienced the same?. Do they block the PDF after a certain time?

Vegas is free if you do it right

Albeit that is a risky strategy.
