In 2024 they dropped the analytic reasoning section. Now it just tests logical reasoning and reading comprehension.
A few weeks after the test I was looking at the magazine rack at the grocery store, and saw a magazine called "Dell Logic Puzzles". I took a look inside and it was full of the same kind of logic games as on the LSAT, with 5 different difficulty levels.
From the ads in the magazine it was clear that the target audience for this was old ladies.
I bought it figuring that since I had aced those puzzles on the LSAT (and on all my practice tests beforehand) I'd have no trouble with any of the puzzles in the magazine, but the harder ones might provide some mild amusement.
Man was I wrong. I could barely do the level 1 puzzles.
Those numbers are well above average. Good results. I don't know the context but if he didn't prepare much or at all then those results are quite good.
If you expected him to get a perfect score, your expectations might be too high or there might be some hero worship going on.
Does it? As others pointed out, those aren't bad scores. Not the highest scores, but not embarrassing for a better student.
It could be that his claimed reading time is just that, a claim, and not true. Or the material he was reading wasn't challenging in a way that would help with test prep to get him a higher score.

Wasn't the constitution ratified in 1788?

However, the operation of the Constitution didn't commence until March 1789 [1] [2]. Prior to that commencement, government still operated under the Articles of Confederation. The question is poorly worded, if they're asking for when the federal government began operating under the Constitution; but it's also poorly worded if they're asking for when the ninth state ratified it.

That sums up roughly 95% of daily practice in US trials and appeals!
