See, I remember the magazine LG but also had 2 LGs.

The only one I remember for sure on the second LG was seasonal cookbooks, but I thought that whole set was tougher.
Magazines and cookbooks were same section and real

Oh. You're right, those were the same section. Well that sucks.

I had something with 18th century books in the other LG and I felt like I went -0 on it. Probably missed 5 in the other one, unfortunately.

I don't remember that one... Any other questions you remember from it or more about that question?
It was about checking data to conform to a theory...I think maybe gold mine and artifacts was in that section but now I'm not sure. I'm trying to think.

I don't remember any of these things and I only had 2 LRs.

Also had an easy LG and a hard one. Hard one involved 3 photographers taking pictures for 3 magazine sections.

I had the hard one with the photographers and no other LG

Nothing but football, beer and scotch for the rest of the day. Feels so good to be done. And it feels really good to feel as confident about the test as I do.

RC I really really hope the big bang was fake and the one with a bunch of passages super similar to old real ones is real.

I went RC (easy--beethoven)
RC (medum-hard--big bang)
LR 26 (chess improving grades)

LG 25: reptiles and snakes, peru to mexico by boat

RC beethoven was real

Reminder that discussing game pieces and rules might be crossing the line here according to the mods.

I just went to the grocery store to find something to eat for lunch, and stood in the middle of an aisle staring helplessly at yogurt for 5 minutes. I ended up walking out of the store with the bottle of fruit juice, a bag of Fritos, and 2 pounds of asparagus (which I am now eating raw). What is life even?

mist4bison · Post by **mist4bison** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 2:05 pm

I...actually feel good about that test? I really hope my confidence is correct haha.

Also, good point in game pieces.

Ugh, time zone differences, I'm late with this. Everyone here - please READ AND HEED the rules below.

TLS Moderators wrote: This is a warning. This is likely your only warning; you are unlikely to receive any further warnings.

Please be advised that discussion or solicitation (including, but not limited to, PMs and online chatrooms) of any questions or answers from the September 2014 LSAT with anything more than an extremely broad level of specificity will result in a temporary or permanent ban. This may include a permanent ban on your IPs if necessary, which will block you from even viewing the TLS forums. Permanent IP address bans for LSAT discussion have been issued in the past.

Examples have been included for your reference below. This is not an exhaustive list. It is not a defense to say that your overly-specific discussion of an LSAT question did not exactly mirror one of the examples - you will still be banned. Linking to other online materials/discussion of the LSAT questions is also prohibited.

Please note that you agreed not to discuss specific LSAT questions and answers when you completed your signing statement when taking the test. The LSAC considers it a violation to discuss specific questions and answers; the LSAC will act accordingly upon discovering discussion of specific questions and answers. Be advised that the LSAC and its agents monitor this board.

Analytical Reasoning Example wrote:1. Games were hard. Okay.
2. Yeah, on the second question for the second game, I wasn't sure if C was just on Tuesdays or Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Ban.
3. No, the order is ACDBBE. Ban.
4. What about Question Four? If C can't go on Tuesdays, then it has to be Wednesday right? Ban.
5. You guys are stupid. The answer to Question Four and Five is D. Ban.
6. No, the answers are CDAABE. Ban.
7. C'mon guys. How can you not know all of the answers? Ban.

Logical Reasoning Example wrote:1. I thought the LR sections weren't too difficult. Okay.
2. What answers did you all get for the coffee growers question? Ban.
3. I got A. Ban.
4. That's weird, I thought it was either B or D. Ban.
5. But it was a parallel reasoning problem. Ban.
6. Damn it, I knew I should have picked B. Ban.
7. Hold on guys, I think the mods might get upset if we keep this up. Never a good sign.
8. Let's trick them by disguising what we're saying. So, hypothetically, if I were a coffee grower..... Ban.
9. You would be displeased with government regulation of pesticides. Ban.
10. But not price controls. Ban.
11. Is that because, hypothetically, price controls would raise prices and revenue? Ban.
12. It's just a cost problem in general. If you were a coffee grower, the legal pesticides would, hypothetically, cost more. Ban.
13. Whoa, it's just like Question 13 from the second LR section in PT 39. Ban.
14. Guys, maybe we should create a chatroom to discuss this. I started one: tinychat.com/letscheatontheLSAT Ban.
15. If you guys could PM me about this, that'd be great. Ban.

Please note that this warning applies to the Reading Comprehension section as well as the writing sample.

If you are in doubt as to whether your drafted post will run afoul of this warning, do not submit the post. You have been warned.

The mods will be reviewing this thread (I haven't had a chance to yet) and will issue bans for people who violate these rules. Consider this your only warning.

Not sure if I should've taken it today. I felt and feel awful still. Thought generally easy but I had to finish the last 8 lg questions in five minutes. My internal clock was just off and I felt like I was on autopilot pretty much the entire time.

MrBalloons · Post by **MrBalloons** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 2:07 pm

Well, I'm more than a little depressed that I managed to botch the real LG.

Here's to going -0 on the rest of the test to make up for it?

Sera Numquam · Post by **Sera Numquam** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 2:09 pm

RC

I feel good about this test. How are other people feeling?
