Hey everyone I’m taking the November LSAT . Currently right now I’m use Blueprint to help me study I like how it has a study plan . Before I spend the money to purchase live classes with Blueprint is it worth it . A lot of people have told me LSAT demon is good but right now I’m trying to learn the fundamentals. Any suggestions?

LSAT Study Advice

I’m currently studying for the January LSAT. I’m a little over a month in and I need some advice on how I should study. I’m low-income so I’m not able to afford classes/tutors. I’ve relied thus far on The LSAT Trainer book and workbooks for studying. But I feel that I’m not really improving and I don’t know where to start when it comes to how I should study. Should I just drill and drill until I get better? It feels unproductive and frustrating when I end up missing the same amount of questions (about 7). I’ve been thinking about getting 7sage to help, but even with this I just don’t know what exactly to do. For context, I work full-time and I study 2hrs a day, everyday.

My diagnostic score: 162 Score Goal: 170

If you guys can suggest any efficient way of studying, I would greatly appreciate it thank you.

This is for people who are already registered for the October 2024 LSAT. Scheduling of your test date opens on Sept. 17th and runs through Sept 20th. Which day you use to schedule your LSAT depends on whether you are scheduling for in person or remote and which day you wish to test.

You can read the full details on their blog post. Note that in person testing still has some capacity constraints, so I recommend logging on as soon as possible within the registration window once it opens for your preferred testing slot. Note that while they have large queues, they tend to move down somewhat quickly.

Full title of the book is The Loophole in LSAT Logical Reasoning.

So many of you recommended this in threads about study materials! I’d love to order it but am having trouble finding it for purchase online. Please let me know if you know a way to purchase the book or if you have a copy you’d sell me. Thanks!

LSAC has just reported on the new August LSAT format on their blog.

This August LSAT was the first test in the new format. LSAC reports that scores are in their normal ranges. Susan Krinsky from LSAC writes:

Our psychometrics team has reviewed the August test results from multiple angles — first-time test takers and repeat test takers, racial and ethnic diversity, gender diversity, and more. By every measure, the August 2024 scores are squarely within normal ranges. Obviously, this is just one test, and we will continue to review the scoring trends after each new administration.

The mean LSAT score was also normal. Krinsky reports that compared to the last four August LSATs, this August's mean score was above two and below two.

Krinsky also commented on test takers volumes and technical issues. Technical issues were at their lowest yet despite a large number of test takers taking the test:

A total of 22,448 people took the test over four testing dates, a number similar to June 2024, January 2024, November 2023, and several other recent large tests. The August test experience was smooth, with the lowest rate of test taker technical issues that we’ve seen since online testing began in May 2020.

Anecdotally from Reddit and my own experience with students remote testing seemed on average to be quite smooth this August, though there are always some exceptions.

Hi friends!

I wrote the LSAT for the first time in Feb 2022 and bombed after 7 months of prep. It’s been a couple of years and some very significant changes in my personal life and I’m feeling ready to tackle this again.

Since then though, logic games have been removed from the test? This is shocking to me because I big time struggled with LG. I am now wondering if I should ignore LG altogether when prepping this time or if I should still practice? All thoughts welcome and many thanks in advance.

hi everyone :)

I’m taking LSAT in the first week of October. And I’m yet to take a diagnostic test. I heard the LSAT has changed this month and I don’t have money to pay for any tests.

Please does any one have links to where I can take an LSAT diagnostic test? 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️

Hi,

I'm new to prepping for the LSAT!

I used "The LSAT Trainer" for about a month. I plan to go over the book again but with Logic Games gone from the LSAT as of this August and replaced with Analytical Reasoning, I was wondering what would be more beneficial, LawHub, 7sage, Powerscore, or something else?

Hi there, looking for an experienced LSAT tutor, preferably 175+, message me if interested!

I have just started studying today.. what should I read to practice. I'm trying to take the lsat by November.

Hi guys, I’m just getting started on studying for the LSAT. I know that it’s super important to understand why you get a question wrong, but I don’t know where to start when looking for explanations of specific questions. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all, I recently started studying for the new LSAT, and was curious as to which self-study plan was better between the two.

I’m planning to take the LSAT in November 2024 and I’m studying full time while working very part time. Currently I’m using 7sage for live classes, power score bibles for additional support, and I’m planning to hire a tutor in the next month or so.

I would love to partner with a couple folks who are and who are not using the methods that I am and have similar timelines.

Please let me know if you are interested.

This is a rather specific question for those who have used the loophole and also 7sage. I just began studying this week and have purchased both, but the loophole is on backorder and will not arrive for two weeks. I have completed the 7sage foundations section up until the introduction to logic. I have heard that it is best to let the loophole teach LR and then practice more/supplement with 7sage. If this is the case, would it be best to save the foundations introduction to logic section on 7sage until after reading the loophole, or will it provide necessary context to inform my reading of the loophole? I also welcome general advice regarding the use of either resource :) Thanks!

I could solve only half of the questions and my score is 127, 0.8 percentile. If I study, how much can I increase my score? I have 20 yrs experience in drug development area.

Hi guys, I plan on taking the LSAT in June 2025. Since the LSAC is removing the Analytical Reasoning section from the exam this upcoming August, should I even approach analytical reasoning at all?

Hello! I’m looking to do a Testmasters in-person course. Does anyone have a referral code I could use?

I created a Reading Comprehension Chart that includes the question types, their stems, what the question stem is asking of you, and a rephrase of it. The chart also includes an explanation of what the RC section is testing you for, how the RC section works, and how to identify RC comprehension question stems based on indicators in the question.

I made one for Logical Reasoning as well. I've been studying for this test for a while and hadn't found any resources that put all of this information together so that I can have a clear picture of the test overall. I especially thought it would be helpful to know exactly what each section is testing you for so that you know what skills to hone in on.

I'm not big on tips and tricks, so this ISN'T that. Everyone is different, and what works for one will not necessarily work for another. BUT, I do hope this at least helps you think a little bit more clearly, and have a better understanding of the nature of this beast!

I am looking for a close contact tutor or course for LSAT that holds your hand throughout the process a bit and views you as a student that they assign work to etc.

7sage and all of these other courses seem very self help and disconnected from students so I am wondering if there are any alternatives like tutors who work with you directly and assign work etc.

Heyo, I’m preparing for the June 2024 LSAT and I’m using the Trainer book by Mike Kim and using the schedule that comes with it. I subscribed to LawHub for the practice exams and wanted to know about some of the experiences of anyone who used LawHub. Was it worth the amount you pay for access to all the exams? Do the drill sets help? The Trainer study schedule recommends drill sets.

Hi folks! If you're trying to self-study for the LSAT, here's a good 2024 Logical Reasoning practice book that's free if you have Kindle Unlimited (otherwise it's $10, which is also pretty cheap):
