I am getting ready to take the LSAT on January 13th and just tried one of the 3 tests provided by LSAC to familiarize myself with the interface. I did the test on a desktop computer and plan to try one of the others on an iPad to simulate a more realistic test day experience. I have a few questions that will help me prepare mentally for the test:
1) The LSAC interface was lagging for me, especially with RC. The highlighting function was so inconsistent in responding to me that I found it completely unusable. Throughout the whole section, I had to pause and wait for it to accept my answer before clicking the next question and then I had to wait a few seconds for the next question to appear. At the end, the timing started jumping from one time to another and, according to the system, I had about 24 minutes left when I finished. My question is whether or not the digital section of RC is as unresponsive under real test conditions. Should I be practicing RC without marking the passage at all?
2) In the real test, does it automatically put you into the next section once you finish a section or does the proctor have to manually start the next section for the students?
3) Khan academy has a diagnostic LSAT. I don't plan to use Khan to study as the Powerscore Bibles have been much better for me, but am interested in using their diagnostic test as another digital practice test. Do you know if their diagnostic test uses real LSAT questions and, if so, which PT it is?
