5-Month LSAT Study Schedule / Plan

All my courses come with all day-by-day study plans.
***

This 5-month schedule is intense. Follow it only if you’re studying for the LSAT full-time, or if you’re able to study for several hours each weekend. You might have work/school/life obligations that make this impossible. If that’s the case, skip some of the “re-do” and “review” weeks, and complete the rest at a more relaxed pace.

Month 1:
Review my relevant articles on Logical Reasoning and complete some Logical Reasoning from PrepTests 52-61 ordered by difficulty during the first 4 weeks, untimed.


Week 1: Complete 20-30 of each question type below:
Must Be True + Most Strongly Supported, Necessary Assumption and Sufficient Assumption

Week 2: Complete 20-30 of each question type below:
Strengthen, Weaken, Parallel Reasoning, Flaw in the Reasoning


Week 3: Complete 20-30 of each question type below:
Main Point, Fill in the Blank, Point at Issue


Week 4: Complete 20-30 of each question type below:
Resolve the Paradox, Method of Reasoning, Role of a Statement, Principle

 

Month 2:
