We will never know it, so no need speculate.

android is right as usual we never will know, however based on the fact that I've taken a million practice tests and have a pretty good feel of what constitutes a generous curve or otherwise, my guess is it will be -10 or -11 at most. Compared to October which had a -12 the games section was roughly equal in difficulty but the RC and LR were, for me at least, significantly easier. Compared to December which had a huge -14 curve the games section, RC, and even LR were easier, again just from my perspective.... I doubt the curve drops farther than -10 but I'm pretty sure it won't be much higher either.....good luck everyone.

I think -12 is most likely.

Now that I'm done, I'm kinda glad it's not disclosed. No need to argue about any questions, never have to see any mistakes I made, and I can just assume it was a really hard test so my score will be even more impressive to me.

Good thing there will be no way to check if you were right.

Is it natural for people to feel like they bombed the test after? I mean during my PT's and my scores barely make where I want to be...considering I didn't finish a lot of questions...does this mean I'm royally screwed? I'm freaking out right now....like freaking out...should be out "celebrating." Don't want to do anything....and I don't want to wait until June :-(

Don't despair grapes there have been plenty of instances of people who felt terrible after wards that did really well, and in any case you don't want to drive yourself crazy over the next three weeks waiting for the damn thing. I took the December '10 test as practice on Wednesday thought I bombed it and got a 176.

Ha! I just saw you were the last poster and guessed that you put -8. If I get a mediocre score I'll just assume that you're right and forget about it.

I still find it hilarious that the one preptest LSAC gives away for free has a -8 curve.
