Which LSAT Logic Games Should I Focus On?
in PrelawWhich LSAT Logic Games Should I Focus On?
In this blog, we typically write about LSAT Logic Games more than we do about any other section. On the surface, this doesn’t make sense. Since the sections on the LSAT are not weighted, Logic Games are worth the least of any section. Yet, they cause the most anxiety and fear in students. Often, students try to hedge their bets by studying what they think will appear on the test. A better approach is to study the games that will help you learn the other games faster. So, in this post, we go over what LSAT Logic Games you should focus on if you are struggling with the section as a whole.

LSAT Milestones: A Guide To Preparing In 3 Months
in PrelawLSAT Milestones: A Guide To Preparing In 3 Months
“Am I in a good place?” is the most common question students ask LSAT tutors. The LSAT is an especially tough test to judge where you are. Unlike the MCAT, you can’t use how much information you’ve memorized to tell if you are prepared. So, we thought we could help with some LSAT milestones to let you know where you should be at various stages of studying. Although we generally advise taking 6 months to fully prepare for the test, we recognize people might not have that luxury. So, we’ll base this post off of a 3 month timeline.

Four Vital Tips For Surviving Cold Calling In Law School
in Law SchoolFour Vital Tips For Surviving Cold Calling In Law School
Classes in law school are likely going to be significantly different from what you have experienced in the past. When discussing material during a session, many professors won’t ask for volunteers. They prefer what we refer to as cold calling. Cold calling in law school can sound very intimidating, and you might have heard horror stories from older lawyers. The truth is, cold calling is not bad as long as you are adequately prepared. And it is an excellent way to impress your professors! Their goal is to challenge you, make sure you can think on your feet, and test to see how much work you are willing to put in.
By asking for volunteers to answer questions, it’s basically an invitation to choose not to do the reading and get away with it. To combat this, many professors prefer calling on students at random. That way, they can see what you’re made of. Impressing when it is your turn can go a long way toward boosting your participation grade at the end of the semester!
