Should I Self-Study Before Starting an LSAT Course?

Should I Self-Study Before Starting an LSAT Course?

This is a question we frequently encounter on our forum, and with good reason. One of the most important things you can do in law school admissions is to plan ahead. If you signed up for an LSAT prep course that doesn’t begin for a while, you’re probably wondering if you can do anything in the meantime. Of Course!

Update: The 2021 LSAT Bibles

Update: The 2021 LSAT Bibles

One of the most common questions I receive right now is: when are the 2021 LSAT Bibles coming out? Usually the answer is an easy one, and by January they are typically out. But 2020 was obviously one of the strangest years in history. And so the answer this year isn’t as easy as usual. The LSAT Bibles Usually Come Out in the Fall I typically make changes to the books in the fall of each year, after I wait to see what has happened with the LSATs … [Read more...]

How to Increase Your LSAT Score When You Are Stuck

How to Increase Your LSAT Score When You Are Stuck

I'll begin this blog with a confession. The vast majority of the text below is not my own, but rather has been taken (with encouragement) from a post Dave Killoran wrote on our LSAT Forum. The advice is too good and too endlessly relevant not to share, so I'm reusing it here to ensure it reaches the widest audience possible. Specifically, Dave went to great lengths to explore and explain two of the most common concerns plaguing test takers. … [Read more...]

The LSAT Bibles: Do You Need the Newest Editions? Part I

It's a common question! Students always ask us, "I have an older version of the LSAT Bibles, do I need to buy the current edition?" The easiest answer for us to give is "Yes, you do!" But, we're cognizant that these books are expensive. So, the answer isn't quite as simple. In order to give you the information to help you make your own decision, let me first give you an overview of how the update process works. In part II, I talk more about each … [Read more...]

Using the LSAT Bibles: Should Your Score Go Up Immediately?

Using the LSAT Bibles: Should Your Score Go Up Immediately?

One frequent question I get comes from students reading the LSAT Bibles who wonder how much of a score increase they should see while reading the book. The answer is that while you are reading the books, you probably won't see much of a score increase. It's after you finish the book and start working with ideas where you will begin to see the greatest score increases! Let's talk about why that is the case. LSAT Studying Is Not Linear To be … [Read more...]

Creating an LSAT Study Bible

How is Everyone Else Preparing for the LSAT?

How is Everyone Else Preparing for the LSAT?

Do you ever wonder? Almost everyone does, but shouldn't, and here's why. First of all, how others prepare for the LSAT isn't a big deal because it doesn't directly impact you. Second, it really doesn't matter because no one else will be taking the exam for you. That is, unless you bribed someone to take your exam, in which case you've got way bigger problems heading your way than choosing a prep method! How to Study for the LSAT Fortunately, … [Read more...]
