Mercy From LSAC?

Post by LitigatingLiar » Thu Feb 11, 2016 11:30 am

What's this trend for the mid 60's PTs to give us all this room on LG? We barely had any room before and I remember one test where there was literally no room to diagram because it was like 8 or 9 questions?

I'm confused as to what your question is. Starting in the mid to late 60s they introduced a different layout so as to provide more work space. That's how it has been formatted on all subsequent tests. It's much better!

Personally, after practicing on old tests, I thought the extra space was distracting and a time waster, since you have to look back and forth a greater distance.

Thats why you do your diagram on the right page, so that once you finish the acceptability question you don't have to look back.

Oh, I'm not complaining. I like the extra room. I'm just curious as to what prompted it. As I said above, there were some tests where there was no room. They usually find ways to make things harder on us, not easier.
