The December 2006 LSAT
Summary
# r/ h% I& g% S9 I* ?As always, test forms for the December 2006 LSAT included an experimental (unscored) section. On most test forms, the experimental section appeared in Section 1. Be aware, however, that LSAC often administers a few selected forms with identical scored sections, but with their experimental sections in a different location. Ratings of this administration placed its difficulty slightly above that of other recent exams. Princeton Review students report being pleased with their overall performance.
Games - 22 questions
Princeton Review students rated the difficulty of this section as similar to that of Games sections that have appeared on exams within the past year. The first game concerned the colors of a clown’s jacket and overalls. Two arrangements were possible: Either the jacket had three colors and the overalls one color, or the jacket had a single color and the overalls two colors. The second game involved ranking six hotel suites in order from most to least expensive. The third game asked test takers to determine in what order seven songs were placed on a CD and whether each song was new or classic. In the last game, you had to determine the order of delivery for eight parcels based on clues that specified the relative order of the elements. Our students found that their familiarity with the games and experience with making deductions helped them set up the games and work the questions efficiently.来源：www.examda.com
Scored Arguments - 25 questions in each section
6 f# Z0 d" R; j; a$ b4 X! o! eBoth scored Arguments sections had 25 questions, and the order in which they were served varied by test form. Within each section, the questions had a rough progression of difficulty. The overall distribution of questions on the test was consistent with the exams in our materials. Spotting common flaws—including causal, necessary-sufficient, and statistical flaws—was helpful for zeroing in on an argument’s weak spot. Test takers found the most helpful POE criteria to be relevance, direction, and strength of language. Broad experience with past exams was invaluable to test takers, and smart pacing choices were required to get the best possible results.

The reading comprehension section offered the usual breakdown of topics—science, law, social science, and arts/humanities. Examinees found the arts passage easiest and the law passage hardest. Overall, test takers found this section easier than those on other recent exams. The first passage discussed Ezekiel Eskia Mphahlele, a South African writer and academic. It addressed the difficulties critics have classifying Mphahlele’s works. The second passage reviewed theories and evidence related to Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB), a period approximately 4 billion years ago during which the Moon, Earth, Mercury, Venus, and Mars were subjected to many impacts from space. The third passage assessed communication specialists’ views on how foreign television programming influences cultures. The fourth passage considered the use of artificial intelligence programs in the practice of law.
