How Many LSAT Practice Exams Should I Take? | Blueprint LSAT

Показать описание

It's time for a little straight talk. You took a practice exam to start off your LSAT prep, and it didn't feel so good. You had to cover your eyes while calculating your score. To your dismay, you found out that your LSAT practice exam score was even worse than your pessimistic prediction. Way worse.

So now what?

Regarding this unpleasant yet extremely common state of affairs, the takeaway for many students is that the key to effective LSAT prep is to take practice exam after practice exam. You stunk at it the first time, and so by the twentieth or thirtieth time, you'll be better, right? RIGHT???

Um, to put it succinctly, no. The video above, starring Blueprint LSAT Prep veteran instructor and all-around-LSAT-wizard Sam Fox, explains exactly what is wrong with this approach. More than that, Mr. Fox will let you know what you should be doing instead that will lead to the LSAT mastery you so fervently desire.

In short, you must learn how to approach the exam rationally and effectively, and, once you have done so, you can use practice exams judiciously to gauge your performance and further target your studies. Not only is this method far less painful than hitting yourself over the head with practice exams, it also allows you to manage the finite number of LSAT questions intelligently. Yes, there are more questions than most students ever need to attempt in order to become LSAT ninjas, but, depending upon the amount you study and whether a retake ends up in the cards for you, it's important to use those questions in the most effective manner.

So, sit back and enjoy Sam's calming demeanor and perfectly trimmed beard. You'll be smarter LSAT prep-wise in two minutes than you are right now.
