Stop Blaming the Test (Ep. 531)

Since the October score release, there's been some online chatter claiming the October LSAT was unusually difficult. Nathan and Ben respond to one student's concerns by pointing to numerous Demon students who crushed the LSAT this month. They remind listeners that every test administration sparks the same rumors, but the LSAT remains consistent from one test to the next. That consistency should inspire confidence. If your practice test scores match your goal score, you’re ready for the real deal.

Also in this episode:

• Ben and Nathan explore community colleges awarding A-pluses

• Demon students share their parting advice for LSAT success

• They critique a prep company that promotes a “blind review” score
