@juliekim That is the quintessential reason for canceling your score. Learn from it, improve over the next three months, and get your 166+ in December.

Yes, yes, and yes. This is great that your outlook on retakes is already here. It was over a year before I started taking advantage of retakes, and that was largely because of my ever-diminishing supply of fresh PTs. I personally never had a set s…

No way. You'll probably be, at worst, close to your goal score. Regardless, there's really no way to know, and because of that, canceling is the riskiest thing you could do to yourself.

Can't stand stories like this. I realize proctors have to make noise every once in a while (mine did, though they were very careful about doing so), but come on. I imagine you did better on the test than you think you did. I always feel like garbage…

Yes, it is very much doable, and I would recommend retaking tests to really learn from your mistakes/lucky answers. Don't make that the focus of your prep or anything, but definitely mix them in if you are not already doing so.

If this test truly is harder than the June test, the curve will probably accurately reflect that. The tests have changed over time and challenge you by focusing on different things, but they all borrow from the same logic. The difficulty comes from …

No, @twssmith they were doing parts of their job incorrectly. I was sure to thank my proctors for the job they did. Couldn't believe they were so perfect. I'm sure any hiccups affected you only a little at most, since you know your stuff. But still,…

Holy crap! @westcoastbestcoast You're right! I wondered why the had that question but didn't think too much of it.
-
I second that
-
@kmarie7 The curve is always reflected in such a way that the -13, for example, indicates how many questions you may answer incorrectly before dropping below a 170. So a -13 curve would make it so that 13 questions wrong would put you at a 170.

May we talk about the writing sample for a bit??? That thing was brutal.

@seanorafferty33 what did you think of the experimental RC? I had that as well
-
Had an RC passage discussing the multiverse and the Big Bang. Can't remember if that was with the lacquer one or not

Computer viruses was real. That was my only LG.

Seems like this recent, dreadful performance is an outlier, and a very explainable one. Fine, whatever, you stunk it up. I honestly don't know a single person who did not experience this at least once. I experienced this about a month ago and a few …

Haha, man. I really struck a nerve.

This is the lamest advice ever, but just keep practicing. Mastering conditional logic takes a while. Even getting good at conditional logic in general takes a while. Always keep in mind that your struggle with conditional logic is not an anomaly.
-
If you're stuck, go back to the curriculum, drill and re-drill LG until you get it right, and take retakes when doing timed PTs. Don't waste too much fresh material if you're at a standstill. Aim instead to learn from the basics and from material to…

@vduran1988 said: Nothing is more true that this. Have taken both the ACT and GMAT. Did really well on both. LSAT is kicking my ass. And off of this, I did well on the SAT, slightly less so on the ACT, and just slightly above average on the GRE (w…
-
I believe it is doable for just about everyone, excluding dramatic outliers, particular exceptions, et cetera. Learning for the LSAT is like learning a new language, and as far as I know, is different than any other standardized test. One's score on…
-
Oh man! Retakes are the best! You will almost surely miss new questions that you clearly don't understand 100%, it gives you an opportunity to work on mechanics and techniques without wasting new material, and it tests your ability to learn from you…

I don't understand. Do you think I'd go so far as to abuse this knowledge??
