Section IV Logic Games

Logic games are no longer part of the LSAT.


PrepTest 85 Data

PrepTest 85 was originally administered in September 2018. Note that PrepTest 85 is a legacy format test, which included logic games. LSAC converted this test into a modern format PrepTest, which uses the same material except for logic games. Sections 1, 2 and 3 of this PrepTest became LSAT PrepTest 151, along with Section 3 of PrepTest 81 as the unscored section.
