I hope so! The explanation of the games section in the post sounds identical to my thoughts. The third game killed me. Now, I don't believe the LSAT is curved versus other test takers the day of, but rather it is designed to be equally difficult each time it is administered. The questions, by some experimental method, are curved beforehand or something like that. Tim Janas — you sure that was the experimental section? I hope so!

It was very different and complex compared to the other sections. It really messed my mind up for the second section, LG. I couldn't concentrate and had to read it over and over. It didn't help that the damn proctor was talking and scribbling loudly on her desk!!! (LR, LG, LR, RC, LR) I am praying for a generous curve!!!!

The games were a bitch, I only did three (once I knew I was not hitting my 8:15 mark I just decided to slow down and go for 100% of 3 instead of 50-60% of 4--besides the guessing will get me at least one of them I should think). The LR was pretty easy, finished that one. The next RC was certainly more difficult, still finished, but nowhere near as easy as the first one. The last LR my brain was tired (could only manage 4 hours of restless sleep before I was up by 5 am) and I just could not get to the last 2 or 3 questions. All in all, I think there will be a decent curve. I hope LSAC steps out of its comfort zone and makes the second RC the experimental, but alas, they will not.

I can't think of an example of a question in the first LR section, but my second LR section had a somewhat odd question around #18, asking to describe or explain(I can't remember which one) the situation. Does this ring a bell to anyone who didn't have three LR sections? I had the LR, LG, LR, RC, LR arrangement for my exam.

Literally, the driest and most time-consuming passages I have seen in probably over 85 practice tests. There was a science passage regarding C. diffusa plants and they all had extremely similar species names and it totally threw me off. I was really glad that it was my third section and was followed by a break. Anyone else think this experimental section was overly ridiculous? My experimental section was reading comprehension.

I did okay on one of them and great on the other but I cannot remember which one was which :( The reading comp section was my last and put a damper on the entire exam for me because I ran out of time and didnt get through all the questions on the last passage.
