LR!!!!!!

Is anyone else finding that the older LR - more specifically the single digit numbers- are alot more ambiguous and contain more attractive answer choices (many seem equally terrible) than more recent a.k.a 40+ LR? I want to believe that LR is one of my better sections, but I'm finding that I'm getting like -4, -5 on older sections where I would probably be expecting like -2 or -3. Anyone else experiencing this?

Meh- I've heard people argue this before, but I don't see it. I think the one thing we need to be careful about is that LSAC balances LR sections off of each other. So it's not uncommon to have one section with more tough questions than the other. People often feel like their scores are fluctuating in LR because they're doing one section at a time and think there's some standard level of difficulty in LR sections when in reality it's the opposite of that.
