Is it true that PTs in the 80s are harder?

No, while I think recent LSATs have differences (such as more convoluted language in LR), you don't just see some huge difficulty difference in the 80s. In fact, I'd argue that many older LG sections are harder than most recent exams (not all, because every era has tough sections of each type, and easy and tough tests overall).

You also have to realize there's a sample bias occurring here. I know very few people who have done every single released LSAT, and instead most people focus on recent tests. So the commentary about those exams tends to get very detailed, and often nuance is introduced into the discussion that may not really exist on a global level (and that's before talking scales).

We're actually the guys that broke the news about which LSATs have been used for the Flex exams, so I'm pretty familiar with what they've been doing Yes, they sued a set of tests from the early 60s, but also a set of tests that appear to be even older. And that's indication of what they'll do next—you just can't tell. Do i think you should do some recent tests? YES, we always tell people to do the most recent LSATs since there can be small directional shifts in what they test.

It's never too late to improve, so do what will ease you mind the most here. Please let me know if that helps. Thanks!
