i don't understand how LSAT scores rise, isn't it curved? or do they not adjust it to make it harder as scores increase? it's completely failing at its basic purpose of differentiating test takers. |

If you don't get accommodations it's just as hard as it was. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5897462&forum_id=2#50094335) |

I don't know where all the impressive young people are, but they're not around me. From my hole in the ground I see a bunch of shit, pure shit.

jews who previously had to wander the dessert for 40 years due to lack of spatial reasoning may now ply their verbal iq acumen to get into gw |

Date: August 26th, 2026 1:03 PM Author: Fucking Fuckface I totally shit the bed on logic games and still got in the 170s / T14 / etc. My score would have been outrageous without games
Since the current generation is illiterate, how are they doing so well? |

Date: August 26th, 2026 1:18 PM Author: Bull Headed Market Feces Today: 170 = roughly 94.5th percentile, or the top 5.5% of LSAT scores. 2005: 170 LSAT was approximately the 97.4–97.5th percentile — roughly the top 2.5% of test takers.
A 170 in 2025 is roughly a 166 in 2005 terms. Makes sense. GW was 165 when I looked at it. |

Date: August 26th, 2026 5:59 PM Author: Exhilarant Crimson Fanboi Dingle Berry I applied as an elder zoomer with a 3.7 / 177 and got waitlist at all T14 I applied to which was almost all of them. Someone with my profile can not get admitted reliably and if you somehow get admitted you will pay sticker. Basically post-COVID there has been a race to the bottom on grading and schools give everyone a 3.9 now which makes sense as any school that doesn’t inflate relative to peers will just hurt the employment and grad school prospects of its students so they basically just have to ride the inflation wave.
