Chill Out
No.
Stop worrying about this sort of stuff — get back to studying for the LSAT. While you’re at it, don’t worry about:
1. When your experimental section happens (sometime in the first 3 sections)
2. Whether it’s a good testing center.
3. The curve this year.
4. Whether to start with (A) or (E).
5. All questions emanating from reality shows, unless it’s an LSAT-related show, which to my knowledge, has not yet been developed.
With love . . .

For one, start noticing the trends regarding the right and wrong answers. The right ones are simple, provable, almost “duh”-like. The wrong ones tend to fall into a few categories: reversed logic, out of scope, extrapolations or detail creeps. Start looking at how the LSAT creates these tempting wrong answers. Take a look at this recording where we go over a MBT question (we call them inference questions): https://sas.elluminate.com/site/external/jwsdetect/playback.jnlp?psid=2009-05-11.1742.M.190DCC4925FAE95F9179E9F531B4A6.vcr
Good luck and tell me how it goes.
