I beat the hell out of it. Maybe -handedness has a small impact, but I'd be willing to bet that it's going to noticeably take a backseat to things like ability and performance under pressure. Effects are likely negligible.

166 (worst-case conditions and earliest PTs) to 178 (pissing excellence that day). Actual score in profile (retake).

Left here, had to use a small right handed desk for when I took my LSAT. While I don't blame my score on this, it was pretty uncomfortable.

It amazes me how much some testing sites don't have their stuff together. The LSAT is a big deal---why are some people still being forced to use tiny desks?!
They also left the door open because apparently if it was shut it would be too hot. And with an open door and a campus right there it was kind of annoying at times. Especially when an event of some sort started blasting music during the 5th section, lol. Although come to think of it, I went -0 on the 5th section, by far my best section, so who knows lol.

At my testing center(my university) i'm pretty sure i'm taking it in a huge lecure hall with small right handed fold up desk type things.

I'm a left handed witch. By the end of my prep I was PTing in the 175-180 range. I got lucky and hit the high end of the spectrum on test day.

IDK about anyone else but I was really afraid of smearing the pencil marks on my answer sheet and essay. I have trouble writing without getting crap all over the side of my hand.

OP, I would strongly discourage you from drawing any conclusions from what's posted in this thread. TLS is a self-selecting group, the people likely to answer in this thread will also be a further self-selecting group, there's no corresponding data collection of right-handed people on TLS, people lie frequently on the internet, etc.

Besides the possible inherent differences already mentioned ITT, we would also be remiss if we did not consider the effect that centuries of left-handed oppression have had on test scores.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
