2 back to back RC sections possible before break?

Has anyone heard of LSAC placing 2 RC sections back to back in the first 3 sections of the test? For example, Section 1 and 2 RC or 2 and 3 RC. I ask because I took an LSAT w/ back to back RC's in the 2nd and 3rd sections and ended up w/ a terrible RC score on the 3rd section, which was well below my average. Thanks in advance.

If you've taken one with back to back RCs already, then isn't the answer yes?

I am asking if it's possible to have back to back RC's before the break (a.k.a. before the start of the 4th section).

I am pretty sure Dec 09 had back to back RC before the break.

I think he meant he took a preptest with back to back RC sections.
And yes, OP, I have heard of it happening before.

It's not so bad. I think having three LR sections (not necessarily consecutively) is the worse.
Having an LG experimental sections is what I want.

I had them consecutively in Sept 09. Killed me.
I practiced RC's for awhile by doing two or three in a row so getting two back-to-back wouldn't have bothered me much.

I agree, that is what I had in Feb. and it just took all the air out of me. I just knew I was going to get 2 LG, so the third LR gave me a head ache and took all the rest of my energy. I was so spend I stopped a page before the end of the section thinking I was done. The worst part was I felt I had killed the first two LR sections. That is why on practice tests I will only toke RC and LR 5th sections. LG is too much of a relief, even if I don't get them all.
