I didnt get to do all the LR. i prob missed about 6 that i didnt have time to answer on the lr sections combined. I think RC was avg and the games were easy. But the LR toook so much time and i never don't finish. for this reason...i may cancel. lets discuss more questions so i can decide

[murkydreamer]

Someone said something about the author's attitude toward Modernism in that passage as well.  I think I put unimpressed, but seems like most people said exasperated.  Guess I missed at least 1.  LOL.

Hmmm, I was debating for that question but I think I ended up putting unimpressed.

so the consensus is that the LG were relative speaking, easy?

like the june 04 test?

That's the answer I put--it seemed reasonable.

[Reason]

i put unimpressed as well...exasperated is too strong of a word for the attitude the author had, he was totally not moved by the arguments

ooooooh man...
i just don't feel good at all about it, and it was because of logic games. my LG was experimental (section 2)...a lot of sequencing questions. And I finished it with time to spare and felt pretty good about it. But then Section 5 was LG again, and I know it was the real one. I don't know if I had already used up all my LG brain juice, but I completely crumbled. I spent 15 on the first question. I stared at questions because they would not seep into my brain. I was a deer in the headlights. It was the LSAT equivalent of George W. Bush debating.
At least I wrote a kick-ass essay!!! Ahh, please shoot me.
I guess I feel better about the reading comp. than some people on the board. the nerve endings one was really stupid, but i thought it was balanced by the super-easy Pacific Coast one. I thought LR was typical.
But one thing...it was late in the day, and I swear I could not figure out this stupid question. I don't know why. It was the one about the first bicycle, and how it was a fad for a while, and then dropped out of favor for like 60 years because "values changed" or something. I couldn't find an answer I was happy with. Does anyone remember that one?

I think I put the choice about how it could have failed for other reasons... maybe?

YES! That's what the other answer choice was. I couldn't remember it. I know "indifferent" and "exasperated" didn't sound right. Pretty sure I put "unimpressed" as well.  If this was indeed one of the answer choices, I'd put money on it being the right one.
