So choosing the right way to study for the LSAT is a matter of simply finding the method that fits with your studying style, schedule, and location.

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!
