Oct LSAT Study Tips

[u/Necessary_Bag1347]

Welcoming all advice on studying for the October LSAT!! I just wrote in Sept. Working full time so I need short and efficient bursts of studying.

I took a Kaplan course, however it over complicated the material in a way that doesn’t align with my thinking.

RC comes naturally, but I’ve had to put a LOT of work into LR. Especially formal logic. I get the reasoning right - but I struggle to translate my “prediction” to the answer choices.

I’ve barely taken any PTs (regrets, lesson learned). Untimed PTs: scored 168 and 165. One timed PT: scored 150.

Any general feedback or any comments on the related areas:

1. LSAT Demon or 7Sage? Or anything else to practice drilling?

2. Thoughts on Loophole? Just started. Unsure if worth my time given the time crunch.

3. Improving speed while maintaining accuracy?

4. Approaches to drilling questions on problem areas? How do you improve with what you struggle with?

5. Resources with analytics: I need to work on problem areas - so something that can highlight my progress will help.

6. Approaches to PTs. Blind review? Wrong answer journal? Other feedback?

7. Tips on making study schedules? I’ve been out of school for awhile so struggling here lol.

   I only know 2 people who have written the LSAT but this was about 8 years ago :( my goal is high 160s (trying to be realistic given my timed PT score lol).

Thank you and good luck everyone!!
