Since the 80s, LSAT test writers have forced test takers to battle some difficult Logic Games: circles, dinosaurs, buildings … the test writers have given us plenty to be shocked about. This week, some pretty startling news came out, giving test writers a constraint more difficult than anything seen on a test: within four years, the Logic Games section, as we know it, may be gone.
Let us guess which LSAT concepts have you been tackling lately? Perhaps you dedicated last week to nailing down logical fallacies? Maybe you were suddenly inspired to start doing circul —- uh, challenging, logic games? Let’s just admit it: logic games can be a lot of fun!
Ok, now let us guess what you didn’t study: Reading Comprehension.
It’s three days before the September LSAT. This means that the time has come to check one very important thing off your LSAT study plan: the Should I Withdraw?! MeltdownTM.
Spoiler Alert: Probably not. But, like everything in law, it depends.
We have some questions to help guide your decision!
Calling all test-takers having Logic Games nightmares! Do you wish the games section would get banished into an “Out” group and disappear from the LSAT? Are you worried about being plagued with a difficult game on test day? Are you drawing pictures of three boats on your scratch paper, rather than creating an organized set-up? Do you want easy-to-follow tips to help with games? This post is for you.
JULY SCORES ARE OUT!!!! Yes, that’s right! Per LSAC’s shocking announcement last week, July LSAT scores were released one week early! If you haven’t checked your score yet, head on over to your inbox and/or LSAC account!
As far as months go, October is a great month. The weather will finally get pleasant, pumpkin spice everything is everywhere…. and let us not forget, HALLOWEEN IS IN OCTOBER!!! What’s not to love? Well…. there is one thing: the lack of available LSAT test centers. Yup, you heard that right, we said lack of available LSAT test centers. Let us explain.
The start of the school year is coming up, and that means one very important thing: everyone is going to be asking you what you did all summer.
If you’re like me, and freak out in situations where you have to come up with your own answer to questions rather than picking the correct one out of five, I have great news for you. Studying for the LSAT can be editorialized into a perfect response to any inquiry in regards to your summer.
If you’re studying for the LSAT, then you’re in the middle of a strange, niche time period in your life that only other LSAT study-ers understand.
(If you’re really in the middle of LSAT prep, you’ll immediately have picked up on the fact that the above sentence was a conditional statement — the “If” indicating that studying for the LSAT is the sufficient condition that ensures the necessary condition of strange, niche time period … SFL -> NTP. Then you’d find the contrapositive of THAT and …. I know, I know. I, too, am tempted to talk about the LSAT in normal, everyday conversations.)
August 1st is only three days away!
Oh no… what even is August 1st? A holiday? Grandma’s 70th? A new Disney movie coming out? Was I supposed to buy gifts for people?
Nope, none of those things.
September 21st? What’s happening then? Wait a minute….
Like, seriously, another test?! Thanks to LSAC’s new testing schedule, yes! September 21st is in fact the date of the next LSAT. LSAC is offering the LSAT nine times this year — in June, July, September, October, November, January, February, March, and April (the “year” according to LSAC goes from June to May … it’s weird). That’s more testing dates than ever before. So, that means that for the next roughly two months, Life = Studying And Tears Tequila Triumph.
