Digital LSAT Question Collections Now Available!

When the digital format of the LSAT was introduced in July, we knew that students would need new preparation tools for this massive change. So, in June we introduced our Digital Platform. This allowed our students to study with the same tools and interface the actual test uses. Earlier this fall we opened up that interface to all students and gave them the opportunity to work with the interface by buying full tests or individual sections.

PowerScore LSAT Podcast

Episode 30 brings breaking news about the future of the LSAT’s most notorious feature, Logic Games!

Killer LG: The Hardest LSAT Logic Games of All Time

Why Review the Hardest Games? The Logic Games section is inevitable. For many, it’s the toughest section of the test.

What’s the Most You’ve Ever Lost on a Coin Toss? Tracking 50/50 Elements in Logic Games

For some students, the mere thought of a logic game is as terrifying as the anthropomorphic creeping death presented by Anton Chigurh in the Coen Brothers’ classic film, No Country For Old Men. Javier Bardem brings Cormac McCarthy’s world-class literary villain to life. In my mind, the best scene of the whole movie involves a coin toss.Despite how it can sometimes feel, a logic game is never quite as scary as that particular coin toss. The LSAT is of course a massively important element in achieving your law school dreams. But, even the most nightmarish logic game is not literally life or … [Read more...]

Logic Games Frequency of Appearance 2007-2018

Law Schools With Late Admissions Deadlines

Law Schools With Late Admissions Deadlines

This post was updated 4/6/18.  We recently posted a list of law schools in the Top 50 that accept the June LSAT. A number of students wanted to also see the full list of all schools with late admissions deadlines ("late" in this case means a hard deadline of March 31st or later). Because we called every single law school on this list to confirm our data, this took a while to produce! But, we can now present you with a complete and accurate list of law schools with late 2018 admissions deadlines. Law Schools with Late Admissions Deadlines In our table, the following categories are used: … [Read more...]

A Comprehensive List of Rarely Tested Logic Games (Outliers and Oddballs)

A tutoring student of mine asked me recently if I could put together a list of Circular, Mapping, and Pattern games that have appeared over the years, hoping to ensure that if the next test continues recent trends of LG weirdness he'll be ready.So while it's always a reasonably safe bet that you won't see any games like the ones noted below, savvy test-takers are ready for any eventuality. To that end, you'd be wise to review a few games from each of the categories here, particularly those from any tests in the 2000s or later. CircularPT1: June 1991 Game 1 PT8: June 1993 Game 2 … [Read more...]
