From the instructions to the logic games section:
"In answering some of the questions, it may be useful to draw a rough diagram."

When I read that, I think of the people in the testing room who are reading those instructions and seeing them for the first time, clueless as to what a good diagram would look like. That's how I felt on my diagnostic anyway.

lol at "reading instructions," especially on test day.
Even though I don't think I've ever read them, I always did dread LSAC changing up the instructions to a section on test day.
and yes, that is a serious understatement. it should read "In answering some of the questions, it may be useful to draw a rough diagram have spent several months practicing drawing these diagrams."

Yeah, I can't help but think that the people reading the instructions on test day are gonna have a bad time of it.

See the "Overheard at the LSAT" thread. It's both amusing and sad how so many people show up to the test woefully unprepared.

I have literally never read the LSAT instructions.

I read them in a study guide once, but the guide was basically saying "Read them here if you want, but you'd better not be reading them on test day".
