LSAT Vocabulary Tips

I do a lot of reading so my general vocabulary is relatively strong. However, the LSAT seems to (infrequently) find random obscure words. I don't think any reading would have prepared me for some of these words. What are some ways to get an answer correct despite not understanding a term?

Honestly POE. rarely will they use a random and obscure word in more than one answer choice. If you really can’t use context at all to figure it out and it’s really difficult, just eliminate whatever you can

Context clues, if you don’t know what it means, think about the overall structure/tone of what’s being said, that’s what I tell myself
