unfortunately +1 . I missed 2-3 on logic games which will keep me out of 170s w/ a -9. praying for -10/-11 expecting -9

I didn't think it was that easy
I thought that LR was "different" from normal, although I'm still unsure of whether it was much more difficult than other PT 55+ tests.
I think -10/-11, but leaning towards the former.

Fewer people are predicting apocalyptic -9 scenarios this time around.
I think it will be atleast a -10, but who the F knows, right?

I didn't take it, but I'm confidently going with -11

-10 or -11, no way it's higher. RC sets the curve once again.

It's at least as hard as September.

LR seemed easier, same with RC. Maybe games were harder.
Am I off base?

i found games and lr really easy, found rc super hard.
i'll say -9 because i'm a pessimist.

RC was definitely hard. LG had a few tough questions; I hate this new "which rule when replaced with X rule will have the same effect" Qs. LR was peculiarly easy..

I remember you on the June thread. Was today lucky number 3?

this is one of those tests where upon finishing I really didn't feel like I showed any particular weakness, but that could be a bad thing as much as it is a good thing.

Based purely off of RC it will be -11, i took it in september, a -11, and this one seemed the exact same except for RC which was insanely harder this time.

-10
91 for a 170.
RC felt easier.
LR felt a little harder than usual, but not much so
LG felt easier than last time. remember guys, september had 2 in and out games using a lot of formal logic. if you did not prepare sufficiently or just sat down and took the test without extensive studying, those types of in out games (undefined, partially undefined) kill folks.

Did anyone feel the test was easy, yet hard? In hind sight I feel like it was pretty basic. However, during the test I was nervous, so it felt harder than what it should have been.

Didn't finish LG or RC. The comparative reading passage took more than 15 minutes, leaving me with little time for the remaining passages. If only this passage had come towards the end. If, if , if....... Thought I would be through with the LSAT after this second time of taking it but no, not until some of this disappointment fades. Back to life.... give me a few minutes... I think I'm feeling better.... better now, but still not completely recovered.

With RC, the passages were easier to read but the questions(and answers) were trickier.
LR was average.
The two of the LGs were simple all around, classes was simple for being IN-Out, Cities was challenging for its type of game. I aced or nearly aced(-1) the first 3 games. The last one i had to guess on a few.

Comparative reading took me 11 minutes... I somehow made up the difference before the last section but still ran out of time really analyzing the last question of the RC
Hope my gut was right.

Next time, skip around and see which ones are easier, just like LG. It had 8 questions but if you did the other three and skipped this one, you would have gained more points.

What was so hard about this one compared to September? I thought it was on the average/easy side.
