PrepTest 157 Data
PrepTest 157 is a new format LSAT PrepTest with no logic games section. Its sections come from PrepTest 93 (Sections 1, 2 and 3) and PrepTest 91 (Section 4). These tests were originally administered in June 2020 and May 2020. Section 4 is the experimental section, which does not count toward your score. It is included so you can simulate a four-section practice test - the questions themselves are no different in style from the scored sections.
*Note that these two tests were originally developed earlier than 2020, used as undisclosed LSAT administrations, and then re-used in 2020. So while PT 157 has a high number, the material is older than other recent PrepTests.
