Got a 174. Took it in Beijing, and there is no curve available. I think the curve for overseas tests must be much tighter.

I doubt you would have felt that way after taking this test. It was significantly harder than any of the many, many diagnostics I took. It made any test from 2007 seem more like the SAT than the LSAT.

Got a 167 which I'm thrilled about after getting 158-162 on PTs! And especially good considering I only did two games of the four (my goal was to finish 3 games but meh). My top choice is l&c and their 25-75 range is 160-164 so I should be in good shape.

The last 15 words of that post are especially dead-on.

Yeah, we should start a club or something. Visiting this forum and hearing everybody talk about how easy the test was didn't help at all with my self-confidence. Especially because my desired career (teaching law) essentially requires that I get into one of the top schools. I was getting around 176-180 on my practice tests and this test seemed much more difficult.

Now I kind of feel like a jerk for going around and telling everybody that I would be "lucky if I broke 170." I even posted a "what are my chances" post predicated on scoring poorly.

I've spent the last month really beating myself over this test (the fact that I took it under really bad emotional circumstances with a very preventable hangover probably didn't help much in that regard). I'm so relieved that things worked out.

Moral of the story: Trust your gut instincts, not the chattering of people on the internet.

exact same as me. i went -13 on RC and ended up with a 164, although i only went -1 on LG.

How do you people do better on test day? I'd be happy to just score above my worst PT score. Anyway, good for you on getting a 167. That was my target score, and I didn't meet it. Perhaps I will in February.

I bumped my score up and feel further vindicated knowing this test WAS as hard as I thought. -14? Yikes! I performed, as I had expected, poorly on RC when it is usually my strongest. Had I done as well on that as normal, I would've been a good six points higher, propelling me into 98th percentile land, but I'll take mine. Can't wait to hit "submit."

I wish this were a PT and I could rationalize why it would be ok to give myself the three correct answers that I erased. Got my score this morning, broke out a victory cigar, decided to review the test for fun tonight and noticed that I changed three correct answers like a tool. Eff it. Victory drinking tomorrow night!

(~173 pt average, never below 169 pt, almost never below 170 pt, max pt 176).

I felt Dec. 5 was relatively easy. Thought I nailed it.

Got a 169. Very much fuk'd.

Glad I accepted a job offer a couple weeks ago. Maybe go around again, but I ain't applying with no fu'kin 169/3.7.

I took the exam in London on 5th Dec, and got my score last night as well. However there were a few things which seemed quite odd:

1) on my IRR (Item Response Report) the LSAT QUESTION RESPONSES section is completely blank and doesnt list any of my responses

2) on the same IRR in the QUESTION RESPONSE DATA section 'Number of Credited Responses' and 'Number of Responses Not Credited' have an 'XX' against them.

3) My 'Answer Sheet' Conversion Table and Disclosure Book cannot be displayed either?

Has anyone else had the same issues ?

thanks

international tests are undisclosed. they will never release the questions. i took the same test (sabbath-observer test on 12/7) and don't have an answer sheet or any info on my IRR either.

That is extremely unfair..esp since my score is well below my expectation how can i verify that all my answers have been marked correctly !? and where did i go wrong !? is there no way to know what my performance on different sections was ?

i totally agree with you. there's no way to know what your performance was on the individual sections/questions. but if you think there may have been an error in scantron scoring, you can request to have your answer sheet hand-scored.

It may seem unfair, but all the information concerning the restrictions of the test were provided to you prior to signing up for it. If you objected, you could have waited until you were state-side to take it. You can request a hand score, but you still won't be given any indications of where your errors occurred.

I still have no score and I have no idea what I got. 160-180?

I got through on the phone, and a lady is checking into it for me. She doesn't know why I didn't get my score either. She's supposed to call back in a few minutes.

good luck...that's awful.

I was averaging 153 on my pt's and on test day hit 160. I have no explanation for it but I will take it. I may even get into a top 100!

Yes! 178! Here's hoping for Columbia!
