LSAT Reading Comprehension

New videos now available! Check out the updated series for the August 2024 (and beyond) test here:

---

The sixth lesson of the FREE LSAT prep course offered by Insight LSAT. This is a comprehensive course for LSAT preparation, taught by an instructor who scored 179 on the LSAT. We go through every section, providing expert advice, strategies, illustrations of methods, and more!

In this lesson, we discuss the reading comprehension section. We explain the RC mindset you should have when dealing with the passages, annotation styles, and more. We also go through an entire sample passage with questions of the major question types.

Hi everyone! The original Insight LSAT Prep Course, launched in 2017, is now outdated. I have released a new series of eight videos that is updated for the modern test and incorporates all that I've learned tutoring since I released the original videos almost a decade ago.


Thank you for all the support over the years. I hope you enjoy the new series.

Does anyone else do these problems and feel so confident, and then when working on actual practice problems can never do as well??

[boazcole]

Sir you are brilliant and no words can express how grateful I am for your kindness in sharing these techniques. I wish you an abundance of blessing!

Excellent video. You really went above and beyond in this one. RC is such a difficulty for me. I scored a 158, but the highest I've reached on PTs is 164, but that was 4 months ago. I haven't tested myself yet, but I believe I'm reaching mid-upper 160's. RC is the most crippling in terms of reaching my ultimate one day possible goal of a 170. Thanks again for the effort put out in this video, it really shines through.

Fantastic video! With the LSAT being administered online during COVID-19, how would you recommend annotating the passages when we are not taking the test on pen and paper where we can write in the margins, circle and underline, etc.? Also, because we are not able to see all of the 4 sections (i.e. historical, humanities, science, and law) and then choose the order that we want to read because it is online and we can't skip to other sections, how should we go about prioritizing which passages to do first (if we even can)? Thank you!

16:51 ...I wish I wasn't taking it virtually, writing on the text would probably help me so much :(

Me when realizing I have to work with my own style which is based on translating in my head to Spanish: Ah Jesus I'm going to explore am I :) ?

looking forward to learn this however. The class has given me clarity to ace the exam.

This was really good, all of your videos are great. It would be very helpful though if you included a comparative comprehensive example too though.

[roxannekinnally]

Yes I feel that way also when I do it on video I understand but when I do it bymyself I have problems too

For question 26, couldn't you argue that the text stated how the United State Sanitary Commission raised $15 million in SUPPLIES rather than MONEY for the Union Army? I understand that the vegetable garden was mentioned earlier in the passage but this question confused me

[oitsendless]

Great vids bro! They really help. Do you have an answer key that you use to verify the answers you choose are correct? For 26, 27, and 28 I have really strong differences as to what the answer is vs. what you chose.

[aerosmithsrinivasan]

Will you be showing the other topics like Science and Law where most people struggle?? Thanks!

[victoriabaxter]

Can you do some videos on law/science questions for people that don't typically do well in that subject?
