are you serious?
prep companies like BLUEPRINT LSAT PREP stated on their blog that LSAC was going to have 2 pages for each LG
that was public information, BRUH

??? Did you find a magical crystal ball that predicts the future? Or was it a psychic?

i cannot disclose my source
but just look at the PT trends
e.g., look especially close at PT in 2003 ... PT#40

I doubt it. It's not like their recent LG haven't been throwing people off in recent tests. The LSAC wants to make sure and put more weight on LR and RC since it better predicts law school success. If it is a circular or mapping game, then I doubt it would be anything difficult.

true.
but look at the stained glass game and zones.

stained glass wasn't anything like zones.
Show me this blog proof that somehow still caught everyone on TLS by surprise before the june PT. I'll even settle for a TLS post referencing it before test day.

I think PT 68 G4 proves they can make very standard setups extremely time consuming if they ask the right questions.

That's what i mean. Seems like the LSAT yesterday had game that did the same thing. I didn't have a problem with the LG on PT 68, but I also blasted through the first three games in 20 minutes. Stained Glass was an easy game IMO, but I haven't gone through PT 67 (zones) yet. I just expect any of the new LSATs to have that one game that you just have to muscle through.

I just attended a "Predicting the October LSAT" event from Kaplan, and asked how likely it is to see a circular or mapping game on the next test.
Of course one can only predict and assume what will be on the next test, but all of the speakers at the event were quite confident in concluding that it will not appear.
I guess we'll never know until we take it.

Unless Dre has a guy working undercover at LSAC headquarters.

(because Kaplan is one of the best LSAT prep companies)

I wouldn't know because I have not taken a course with Kaplan before. If any of the other prep companies held such an event, I would have done the same thing.
Not to stray from what's important though, unless you can prove that your source is legit, I would agree it's unlikely for LSAC to re-introduce the mapping/circular games, considering the current trends.
As I said before, we will just have to wait and see, won't we?

Ad hominem.
Word on the street is that experimentals will show up in sections 4 and 5.

Agh! All of this is making me paranoid. Wish I hadn't opened this topic.
Dre are both the stained glass and Zone games you referring to in pt 40?

Zones is in PT 67.
Stained glass was... PT 62?

There were rumors of an experimental circular LG somewhat recently (no idea what PT or any details on how easy/hard the game was), but I'd suggest everyone to at least have a basic familiarity with circle games.

They would need to test it out in an experimental section first, right?
Do complex games ever jump from the lab straight to a scored section?

Could have been done on an experimental years ago.
