Vent, regarding one of the hardest Reading Comps ever! I should have assumed it was about Black, injustices!

Blacks, Native Americans, obscure South American writers are all LSAC favorite topics...

They always recycle the most played out topics of all time.
Same reason every LR mentions high blood pressure/high cholesterol and the extinction of the dinosaurs. I mean, who CARES?

That's because white people are obnoxiously over-represented in every facet of life. Us minorities get a bone thrown our way to make up for all of the white privilege.

I actually felt really good about RC this time around...June 2010 was difficult for me and brought down my score way below my PrepTest average. This time, I finished with time to spare and there was only one UN question that I felt unsure about.

Ditto to that my man.
Also, its very true that LSAC recycles question topics. Theres always a freaking dinosaur question on the LSAT. That and the people in LG's always have some strange names...

Also the real RC referenced bee dancing for the 2nd test in a row haha

Impressive --- you must be an Asian, who went to CAL with a Doctor for a Dad and a Managing Director of a VC for a Mom.
I guessed on ohh about 13, due to bad time management... It was also my 1st. Which was awesome, cause I had no trouble at all concentrating.

Seriously. I'll never feel like we are adequately represented until the president is Black

I feel like Asians (including Pacific Asians) seem the most under represented outside of academics.
