How representative are the most recent PTs with current LSATs?

I just got a great score on PT157 yesterday, but I have heard that the currently administered LSATs don't seem representative of practice materials. How much truth is there to that? Should I be doing anything else, like drilling just 4s and 5s, for the real thing?

    I am wondering the same thing. Also which PT's are the most similar to the real thing?

    I took the LSAT in June, I'd say they are similar, but not the same. The median difficulty felt about a 3.5/5 but I'm pretty comfortable with LR material. Regardless I would bet on the test being at most a point to around half of a point harder than the PTs.

    I took the LSAT in June, and I would definitely say be prepared for the questions to be lengthier, wordier, and just generally trickier in terms of how the questions are written compared to the current PTs.
