Drilling is one of the most important elements of your study plan, but drilling effectively isn’t always intuitive. This class will focus on fast drills that help bolster good timing habits, with a chance to discuss in between.
Taking a few moments to 'pre-phrase' a potential ideal answer choice between reading the stimulus and the ACs is a powerful LR technique. If you spot a missing bridge between the premises and conclusion before getting mired in the answer choices, there's a good chance you'll be able to pinpoint the correct answer in a fraction of the time it would otherwise have taken! Join instructor Bailey Luber for a primer on what to look for when pre-phrasing and how to capitalize on a solid pre-phrase.
Both MSS and MBT questions ask us to evaluate inferences- what can be validly drawn for the stimulus, and are all valid inferences equally valid? This class will explore the significant similarities and differences between the two classes, with an emphasis on the tips and strategies best applied when you encounter a question of either type on the test.
Macro-level strategies are a critical yet often neglected set of LSAT skills. When engaging with the test, you should always have a plan! How often should you skip, and how should you be deciding which questions to come back to later? What do you do when you don't understand a stimulus, or find yourself evenly torn between two attractive answers? Join instructor Rahela Sami for an exploration of the bigger-picture techniques that will keep you moving with purpose throughout a section.
The closely related Parallel Reasoning and Parallel Flaw question types are often regarded as the most difficult and time consuming of the LR types. They don't have to be! This class will cover key concepts and strategies that will help you navigate parallel reasoning with accuracy and confidence.
With a double portion of LR guaranteed every test, the Logical Reasoning section is more important than ever! Mondays through Wednesdays will feature questions of average difficulty, while Thursdays and Fridays will feature the most challenging questions the test has to offer.
Can an hour of class cover 10 questions effectively? Find out with instructor Henry Ewing as he pares each question down to the essentials. Learn to prioritize more efficiently, and move with purpose in your approach to LR!
A significant portion of a typical LR section is made up of Weaken, Strengthen, and Evaluate questions. These three closely-related question types all ask us: what would tip the scales for an argument? Sharpen your skills while exploring the important similarities and differences between them!
